I'll try my best to take photo you need, for free.
Also, have you considered submitting images to sites like unsplash.com or skitterphoto.com, which basically offer the same thing but with a CC0 license?
And if it is just feedback you need there are plenty of photo communities online like Flickr where you can post images and solicit critical feedback.
It is a nice offer you make but posting something like this to HN is really limiting and cannot last long. I think you are better off looking elsewhere, so give it a try and good luck.
I raised a legitimate issue, offered realistic and superior alternatives, and wished OP good luck.
If this offended your sensibilities or came across as negative to you, I think you should re-read my comment and reconsider. Maybe we'll just agree to disagree.
I'm looking for (blurred) background photos onto which we can put iPhones for our editor. To give you an idea, please see the second and fourth example on our landing page at http://www.screenscott.com (please hover).
I'm most interested in a picture of an US Downtown (such as SF), looking from a sidewalk down a street. I've taken similar pics when I was in the US, but a) I was pointing the camera up, but to look realistically, the horizon needs to be in the upper half of the picture and b) if blurred with the camera lens, the pic looks much better.
It would be awesome if you could help us out :) Thanks!
I've been looking for mountains (e.g. two mountain peaks that represent math and physics) that could be used. The book is your guide to the mountains of math and physics.
Alternately, just some nice picture of fall colors. Спосиба.

It looks like plasti-dip on a brand new paintbrush, and I really like the way it's cropped.
I can't seem to figure out if this image is for sale, or how to buy it.

Like the OP wrote, photography is a hobby.
Charging for anything requires extra work. If the OP is an employee doing another sort of work, the extra work involved in charging could be enough to complete overwhelm any benefit from charging, unless the OP somehow won the lottery and made huge bucks (unlikely in the extreme).
Even if the OP is already working as an independent business owner, using their existing "charge people" infrastructure and tools for a non-core hobby could be somewhere be difficult and infeasible.
There are things that we do because we enjoy them, not because we have any vanity hope of ever making money from them. Getting our work in front of others allows for broader criticism, which can make us better; for attribution, which can lift our spirits (I did that); and for recognition, which can, sometimes, for some, make us money.
Let's stop this "never do anything for free" fetishism, shall we? As important as money is, it ain't everything.
EDIT: Removed the 'synchronized' bit. Can be indoors if necessary, given the current time of year and climate.
EDIT: Added my email in my about. Thanks again!
Thanks! Edit: Feel free to email me about it.

If do abstract - maybe a gift box with lights out of it?
I know my request is completly open and unespecified, but I want to see ur art.
A photo of 2 guys talking at a table (office or lunchroom)
Would love a high resolution photo of the inside of a record store.
A good cover image could be key. Maybe a picture of an ebola or some kid playing with an ebola stuffed animal. Something that promotes togetherness.
TIA.
