ok, this nomad was freakin' pristine. even better that i made the owner nervous—though i was several feet from his car, he was afraid of my gear touching his baby. as if i want to bump any car—guess who'd get to pay for any damage? errr. well, there was a power cord running behind his car, but i stayed off of it. almost didn't want to bother taking a picture of it after that.
strange how he worried about me scratching his baby, when i later saw his toddler kid crawling around inside and beside it. doesn't he know that children are more hazardous to a vehicle than little old me and my tripod? i speak from experience...whatever.
