I will have to give this more thought, though clearly its difficult to give a definitive answer. I don't think this is a subject you can be prescriptive about. However I think you have touched on something that I firmly believe and that is that to be in the right place at the right time is often paramount in getting the right feel that makes a great photo.
I often refer people to the wonderful work of
Scott Dommin
Also the work of the
Time Catcher team all stunning Landscape photography.
For me the light is paramount too, it can make or break a shot, but its often luck to be there when the light is at its best. This is amply illustrated by a couple of shots I took in '04 on a trip to New England. The Nuble Light on the coast of Maine is a classic lighthouse, but I managed to catch at sunset, exactly the right time.
