I've never taken a macro of a flower outside a wedding. I've shot all the others you mentioned, though.

I don't recall shooting a model to look like a bobble-head.

I have taken a picture of a cat and one of the moon. Everything else on your list applies for me, too.

Never taken a closeup of a handshake or self portrait... all others from above accomplished.

Would like to take a water drop macro as well as experiment with abstracts and light painting.

Ohh yeah. I've never done a waterdrop shot either. That's a good normal one.

I've never purposely taken a crappy photo with a tilt-shift.., and don't plan on it either.

The flower outside of a wedding one made me laugh! It sounds so cheesy for a wedding photog to do... and it would be even more odd, if you weren't even there to shoot the wedding!

I love shooting the moon, and would like to have the proper gear to do it right. I've never shot lightning as a subject, but it has been in the background of some shots. I love shooting macro bees and there are several of them on my blog from this summer. Self-portrait and cat? Yup.

I've never photographed a nude model in a cemetery. I don't plan on it, either.

I've done all of the above from the OP.

But I've never taken a picture of a unicorn, but I plan to......with a tilt/shift lens......
