The title says it all. I'm looking to go on a local photo safari, and I'm looking for cool things to shoot. I'm most interested in local color: what makes this area unique? For now, I need to stay in central OK, say no more than 50 miles from OKC. Suggestions? Who has something cool nearby?
That really depends on what you like really. It's sort of a "colorless" part of the season for nature photos (trees, flowers, plants, etc.)
What kind of equipment do you have.
I find all sorts of stuff to photograph around the house, been playing with off camera flash for different lighting. It's going to rain here tomorrow I think, and that makes some pretty neat photos.
I have also been taking a few in downtown Tulsa, in the right spot (which is sometimes in the middle of the street) you can get a great backdrop.
If all that fails, you can always photograph butts, like been suggested.

Nikon D-70 with lenses from 18-300, an SB-600 flash, and I could probably lay hands on other stuff if I needed to.
Think of it this way: if you had family in another part of the country who had never been to Oklahoma, and could send, say, a dozen pictures, what would you send?

The memorial downtown, the gardens and the river walk are all nice. You could also make a trip out towards Arcadia and get some shots of the round barn and Pops giant soda bottle
LOL. I was just about to recommend Pops at night.
Sunrise: SE corner of NW 150th & Council looking east over a small tree.
Sunset: SW corner of NW Expwy and Piedmont rd. There is an old rustic cabin with a windmill beside it.
You can google earth/street view those places to see them.

If you like abandoned stuff, look up Fallis, OK. It's just up Route 66 and right by Welston. Went over there recently myself.

I go shoot (camera) stuff all the time. Let me know if any of you every want to go.

I play with this.
Photo abandoned buildings etc. anything you can think of.

Like the poster above said Route 66. There are lots of great shot opportunities on the drive between OKC and Tulsa. Old tractors laid to rest, some dude has a tiny train on tracks out in his yard, there's on old broken down mini golf park or water park or something which makes for some neat images and a couple of the small towns are old enough that they have cool buildings in their downtown areas if you like to photograph older architecture.
If you like more modern stuff, capitalize on the new additions to OKC like the big scissortail feature over I-40, the Chesapeake boathouse, the Devon building, etc.
