One advisory, one suggestion about wikishootme:
Advisory: since it goes by Wikidata, it has lots of gaps - e.g., I'm
planning on taking a bike ride today, and the first 4-5 nearby items
suggested by wikishootme had pictures in enwiki that just hadn't been added
to wikidata yet. So prepare to spend some time pre-photography with
useful.js
<useful.jshttps://www.wikidata.org/wiki/User:Magnus_Manske/wikidata_useful.js>
or another similar tool to make sure you're actually going towards
something that is useful. That may make it less useful for wikiamateurs :/
Suggestion: Maybe integrate that functionality directly into wikishootme?
("this has no picture, but the article does, review and add it?")
(FYI, there is also a several minute lag between adding images in wikidata
and having them removed from wikishootme.)

Hoi,
<grin> the wikishootme has a shitload of items that do not have an image..
Nearby does NOT give me anything without an image as it so happens. </grin>
Wikishootsme is great for photographers.
Thanks,

I've just been introduced to
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Nearby which lists articles near
your current location and from the thumbnail it is fairly obvious
whether it has an image or not.
Why not use
https://tools.wmflabs.org/wikishootme/ ?
