Thoughts:
It is possible to have a good composition of a mundane subject, and
conversely it is possible to have a poor composition of an exciting
subject. The key is to find/create the well composed exciting subject.
Beyond that, it is also possible to imbue a composition with emotion to
transform a superficially mundane subject into something exciting and
dramatic
