Two years ago, Shane Black was being suffocated by his comfort-zone. Everything around him seemed so familiar that it all blended together, his days passing like a blur in a passenger’s window. When humans resign their lives to routine, they become passengers of time and can end up miles away from their dreams with only a vague recollection of when the boredom all began. So Black and two friends decided they would take the driver’s seat of their own lives.
They took the phrase literally and took a van to visit 13 national parks in a Dodge Caravan with no cruise control. Shane writes, “We all felt that it was time to take a risk and get out of our comfort zones… adventure was calling us. It was a trip filled with endless hours cooped up in a van, exploring breathtaking landscapes, sharing stories and laughs, meeting some of the nicest people, making new friends, getting to meet old friends from around the country, and sharing our love of photography with others.”
Over the course of their epic journey they captured an epic time-lapse to capture the jaw-dropping beauty of the Great American landscape. As you watch this footage you’ll feel your spirit expand outwards.
