University of Tampa is Architectural Delight! The metal Domes make interesting photographs. Historical site that is old 1930's hotel turned University. Widely photographed. Great for black and white photography!
Yes Walt Disney World is the typical tourist attraction but, still FUN to shoot Nonetheless!! You may want to pay particular attention to the disney boardwalk. You can get to this area for free see this article. You ARE allowed to shoot here commercially and really are only regulated on a few select rides (usually film-based attractions).
Bayshore Blvd near downtown Tampa.
I grew up in North Tampa, and this was one of the first things I photographed in a college photography course. This old water tower stands alongside railroad tracks in an area called Lutz. You can park on the road (Sinclair Hills) off of Nebraska Ave. I am sure it is probably private property (railroad owned maybe?), but I have shot here many times with lights and equipment without being hassled by anyone.
Gravelly Point is a favorite location for DC photographers looking to test out long lenses. You have a great shot of the runway and can hear the rush of jet noise as planes pass only hundreds of feet above you. Sunny weekends get a little busy , but on weekdays you don't have to jokey for position.
See Wiki artical on the location here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravelly_Point

This is a public park and as such requires a permit for any "big" shoot. I have shot here with strobes without a problem and park rangers are usually OK with it as long as you don't cause a ruckus. If all you are doing is shooting around with just your camera no permit is required according to city ordnance 9714. These pictures were shot on the edge of the boardwalk ( a local hangout for many nature photographers). You will see... Alligators, Birds of many types, river otter and much more.
