Fantastic acknowledgement



Knocking around the states in this unusual choice of wagon has without a doubt brought pleasure to many that see it. People stop me at gas stations, parking lots, traffic lights; I've even been stopped by coppers before now just to learn about the car, why it's here and how I did it.

But when I read this article (below), it really did make me smile. Such a charming acknowledgement to the hard work of myself and my friends.

Chris Pollit, I thank you for telling the world and am pleased that another voyeur could express their happiness is the crazy adventures of the lucky black cat :)

Magazine article

So during my travels, I contacted an online magazine produced by time Inc for the Ford motor company. I gave a brief synopsis of my story with a few pictures and learn behold, I was contacted by the editor.

After a lengthy conversation with Jordan and then journalist Chris Warren, an article has come to fruition. 


I'm really proud of this and will contact Jordan as soon as the remake of the commercial is finished.

In the meantime, please have a read and enjoy.

San Francisco

Feature film:

The final leg of the journey. Arriving in San Francisco was going to be on the Chevening I thought I'd never make.

After thousands of miles and countless adventures, we were nearly there. With just a couple of hundred miles to go The country declined in altitude swiftly and I went from over 5000 feet to sealevel in just a few hours.

Completing the documentary has been eye-opening itself. Even if nothing came of it (professionally), it has been the most incredible experience to capture and document the world first using nothing but a couple of archaic iPhones, some cheap lenses, regular car phone holder and a selfie stick.

Thank you for following my journey; especially those that took interest from the beginning and a very special hello to those I met along the way that have followed since.

The images will come in this post but for now, please click the link above and enjoy the final episode of the documentary;

The Lucky Black Cat

Sincerely;

Chris

Reno

Feature film:

Reno. The second to last destination.

I spent my time here in a political capacity rather than spending time photographing the car, but I did get a couple of shots.
