I don't think we've ever had a "subarbs," shot here. Do a series on it. ;)

What subject matter do you most like to shoot? There is actually a wealth of macro work to be done almost anywhere, at nearly any time.

Lots of cool places to shoot. Depending on which burbs. Downtown Evanston can yield some nice shots. If you are near Northbrook, the Botanic Garden is amazing. Worth the yearly membership. Brookfield Zoo for animals. How about Oak Park for some Frank Lloyd Wright homes? There are plenty of great places. I could go on and on, but there are plenty of books for that topic.
