This just pulled up in front of my office at the Herald-Journal. The Camera Van, created by Harrod Blank, has over 2,000 cameras, four working monitors and even has six functioning Canon EOS cameras wired via remote cables to a shutter button panel on the dashboard.
To the average passerby, this van is weird, but to a photographer and collector of antique cameras, this van is awesome. Unfortunately, I had to get back to work or else I could have spent all afternoon talking to Harrod and exploring the features of the van. However, I was able to hand him $20 for his book of Art Cars and snap a couple pics with my Blackberry. Check out his website www.cameravan.com. He will be showing his documentary film about Art Cars at the Chapman Cultural Center on Wednesday.

Wow, that’s quite a van. It combines two of my favourite things: music and photography. Love it!
