Take a photo with a lens that one would not normally use for your photo. As in, using a wide angle for a macro shot, or a prime zoom lens for a landscape.

Perhaps that is the problem?

I think this is a quirky but fun suggestion. The selection of a lens lends much to the feel of a photo- successfully switching the feel (via the peculiar application of a lens) while still effectively conveying the scene seems like an interesting challenge.

Perhaps the photo titles should be, "...should have used a XXXmm"?

Such as a wideangle for portraits? I do that all the time. My favorite lens for people shots.

Still waiting for someone to come up for a solution for that problem

I use my long lens regularly for landscape images. I've recently used my 10-22 for wildlife.
