We live in New England but my wife telecommutes to WA. They don't get the kind of snow we get here and wanted to see what it was like.
I would like to see really impressive lens flare. Not impressive because it's huge and overpowering but because the poster feels it actually contributed to the picture.

I think I'll loosen that up a bit. Instead of specifying lens flare, how about just a happy accident? The pelican in this picture was just sitting in the tree when I hit the button on my CoolPix 4300 (old, but nice for its day) last year.
The shutter lag on the CoolPix meant I got the bird just as he was taking off instead.
