Trying A New Hobby

Anyone in the Chicago, Illinois area reading this —

I’d like to try something different on Saturdays: combining Geohashing and on-location photography.

I want to see more of Illinois, and this weekend’s AWA reminded me how rusty skills get when you don’t use them. (Read: all photos from this weekend sucked and I’m not posting any of them.)
Combine that with an upcoming photo assignment and you get certain disaster — unless corrective action is taken.

I don’t really have much money to offer models, although we can work some sort of compensation. I’m looking for someone who doesn’t mind working with an obviously n00b photography student, and is just as willing to give suggestions as they are willing to follow suggestions.

Let me know if you’re interested, and we can work out schedule and protocol. (Not every geohashed location is accessible: for example, the geohashed location for 2008-09-08 is in Lake Michigan. So that’ll have to be worked out.)
