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, GerardM

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/ ?
