I really like this series of work by Andrew Bush, named "Vector Portraits." The work examines the relationship between American's and their cars, and how they represent many of the ideals in culture; freedom, mobility and independence. By attaching a camera to the passenger side of his car, Bush almost intrudes of the occupant's space, and presents a very real view of a culture of travel.
A lot of travel photography deals with the places visited and the things seen whilst on the road, but Bush's is different in the way that it deals with people and the portraits give an interesting element to something which is sometimes overlooked - the people doing the travelling!
