Telephoto lenses help to isolate your subject and bring a distant subject closer but you can also use them to flatten distance or for a shallower depth of field.
Use a close foreground object or a person to create the illusion of depth in your photograph. This can also give scale to your photograph.
Give yourself a photographic assignment. Whether it is about local food, music or dress, see if you can make an interesting story.
