  • Travel photography along Route 66 has been a mission. But, man has it been fun!
    My travel photography on Instagram: / brendanvanson
    Route 66 is one of the most eclectic places on the planet. It's just a road of perfect nostalgia and memorabilia. In many ways, it's the true essence of "Americana". And, it's been fun to shoot travel photography throughout the journey.
    Today, we took Route 66 southwest from Springfield, Missouri into Kansas and finally into Oklahoma. Along the way, I actually managed to get 2 or 3 interesting photos that I think really managed to capture the essence of things so far.
    My travel photography project along Route 66 is still a work in progress, but I feel like it's now finally starting to gain some substance on day 4 of the journey to California. It has been incredible so far.
    Tomorrow, the travel photography continues from Route 66. Stay tuned.

    I waited with baited breath for you to get to tulsa, then I saw the skyline and I was like "YEA!". Then I got got a glimpse of Cyrus Avery plaza and then you were magicly in OKC.

      Yeah, we messed up big time.
      We should have spent a night in Tulsa, but we misjudged the timings. I'll have to make a special trip there at some point to make up for it.

    Some of the b-roll today reminded me of Stephen Shores uncommon places. That book changed my perspective on photography.

    The Field of Dreams was filmed outside of Dyersville, Iowa. It is still there.

    Just came across your Route 66 vlogs today and have been binge watching them. They're amazing!
    Wanted to know what is the title and author of the Route 66 guidebook you guys were using???

  • @drakedyck4612

    I’m enjoying following along on your Route 66 adventure. I travelled a small portion of it in Arizona years ago and always wanted to do more.
    Perhaps you could consider doing the TransCanada Highway from coast to coast for your next road trip! 😬

    • @BrendanvanSon
      @BrendanvanSon  6 років тому

      That trip is on my plans. When this channel hits 75,000 I'm going to do a 13 in 13 challenge in which I do all 10 provinces and 3 territories in 13 days. 😁

    • @drakedyck4612

    • @BrendanvanSon
      @BrendanvanSon  6 років тому

      It's one by Jerry Mclanahan. It was essential.

    BRENDAN! OUR OKC CAPITAL BUILDING IS BEING REMODELED!
    It’s a mess, or it was the last time I went by it, maybe two weeks ago. I think you probably should pick another location.

    Asking people to photograph them is so nerve wrecking to me. How did you get past that?

    Sorry but it's bugging me: what do you use your blue carabiner for? ;)

    • @BrendanvanSon
      @BrendanvanSon  6 років тому

      Hahahaha. Everyone asks that. Honestly, I just put it there once and never took it off. Haha

    • @virginieb20
      @virginieb20 6 років тому

      :D :D I actually like it. I think it's part of your style now: the hat and the carabiner! Makes me want to put one on my bag as well. lol

      Thought I saw a video with u on a cliff edge with a rope attached to the tripod and to the cabrina (or how ever it’s spelt). Only noticed as I wondered myself

    Is this guide you're following available for free to download?

    • @BrendanvanSon
      @BrendanvanSon  6 років тому

      I don't think so. It was like a $25 book!

  • @Max-cd8ii

    Okay my impression of route 66 so far is that it's the most random collection of useless shit ever :D
    Who would even want to have, let alone visit, the biggest for/chair/whalemoddelthing in the world and why is it in a guide book??? :D
