A Little Help From Van

One of the features I really like about Van is that when the top is up, I can unzip the windows and screens, and shoot pictures from inside, using Van as my mobile photography blind. It's especially helpful when I'm in camp and an animal wanders by. If I went outside to shoot, usually the animal runs off. When I'm inside, I'm protected by the gift of temporary invisibility.

Other times, the extra height I get from shooting inside Van, gives me a better angle, allowing me to remove unwanted clutter from the scene, as I did while shooting these pictures from my campsite at Badlands National Monument.
