I recently met a person who is also taking a photography class and we ended up spending time together at Anime St. Louis. Well, she had an assignment that required her to make a series of photos be connected in some way and she wasn't sure how. (For those of you who don't know what Anime St. Louis is, its pretty similar to comic cons where people dress up as characters.)
I gave her some advice and we even walked around while she took some photos, I pointed out a shot that gave a pretty interesting view point. Her response was " yeah.. but I'm worried it might look boring."
Here's the thing, the shot was not boring at all, to any normal person it would look really odd, especially sense the photo in question was taken where the people in it looked like they where there every day but in costumes that many people have never seen before. To have an interesting photo doesn't mean there has to be any special thing happening in it. To me a photo that captures something normal but has that something in it that catches your eye and makes you look closer is an interesting photo.
