Hyde Park, Austin, TX

Someone is looking for photos of Hyde Park in Austin, and offering $500 for the photo they choose. I am debating whether to drive 2.5 hours down there, take some photos, drive back home, edit and upload those photos, in the hopes that one of my photos is selected and I get paid. Is that really so much to hope for?

Does this sound unreasonable to anyone? More importantly, does anyone have some good photos of Hyde Park in Austin that I could offer to the buyer?

$500 for photos of Hyde Park? Huh...individual or business? Sounds kinda funny to me.

A business wants to license a picture of something recognizable in Hyde Park for a mailer. Deadline is currently tomorrow (Feb 8).

I decided not to take the trip because I expect most of the plants are dead and not photogenic at this time of year, and the day is so late that I would not arrive until nearly sunset, and Hyde Park is a large neighborhood with which I am unfamiliar (though, I did look it up in Wikipedia and learned a bit about it). It's tempting, because I technically could make something like this work, but this one is just not quite good enough. Too bad, because I probably won't have a chance to do something like this again for a while.

I don't have any photos on me, but if you pass me the information I'll take up the offer.
