What a great exercise.  I assumed my preference was more dark, saturated photos.  After simply going through instagram and picking photos that I liked, it seems I like less dark and saturated images.  Now, looking at my own photos, I can see where my assumptions of how to shoot was impacting my results in a negative way.

This is about the biggest self-enlightening moment I have ever had with my phtography.

And yes, I have a heavy influence of Jim Westphalen's phtography :-)
