After going through so many journals and websites and having seen what get published, what people gush over when it comes to photographs today, here's what I think, a fail-proof formula, for photographic success:
1. Go to a place of historical/social importance
2. Take photographs of the place or its current inhabitants in a dignified way (unsentimental but stately, this is important!)
3. Success
However, if you were a conflict photographer, be sure to be on the look out for these visual motifs. It is absolutely a requisite that you have one of these in your photos:
1. Guns
2. Blood
3. A wound, an injury
4. Fire or explosion
5. People screaming
6. People crying
These are what image-consumers in non-violent countries want. So you better produce them!
