Deschutes River




Title:
Deschutes River

Description:
Decided to walk down to the old Olympia Brewery and film the Deschutes River a little bit this morning. We've had record flooding in local rivers. This is due in part to a lot of rain in the past few days, but mostly because of our record snowfall the last weeks of December, coupled with unseasonably warm temperatures during the rain. It all melts, now I-5 is closed in Chehalis to the South, and Tacoma to the North, really effectively isolating Olympia from the world. Sweet! Olympia is pretty much one of the raddest places anyway. I shot this in 60 frames per second to get some sweet slow motion action. No, my camera is not HDV, and yes, it can shoot 60fps. Hooray DVX100b!
