Find the magic
We are back to living in larger setups at home, now that we are locked in, so rediscover the bonds, and begin to discover your own self. Photographing big events is not creativity, as they have dramatic moments and give you a higher possibility of dramatic pictures. It's what you create out of daily life which is special and important, and you will then be a master of big moments. Find the magic in your kids, your parents, your spouse, what will you look for outside if you haven't interacted at home and not sensitised yourself at home. Be it boring, special or aggressive, every emotion matters.
What you shoot should be an instinctive response that has emotions and feelings. For example, if you shoot a politician in a meeting, and show important people seated there, that's normal. It is the emotional response of the politicians to what is being said that makes for a good photo.
