Last week I went up to visit with the folks to do some F&F. Dad and I took a trip up to Middle Thompson for a little blueback fishing. We didn't do too shabby, we came back with enough kokanee to make it worthwhile to fire up the smoker. During our lunch break I was fiddling with my camera and accidentally took this picture. It's not centered but I think it is pretty cool.
After fishing for bluebacks (or silvers as folks here in Washington call them) we went for a float on the Bull River. We didn't do any fishing, we were just soaking in the sunshine and floating for the heck of it. The pictures below are some that I snapped during our floating adventure.
I thought it would be fun to take some video of the gnarly section of the river downstream from my folks house.
Below is a section just downstream (~30 meters) from my folks house.
The last sections are one big video that I spliced into smaller portions. Normally I don't take 8+ min. videos. It seems like editing, exporting and uploading 2 to 3 minute videos is just more time efficient than doing a single video that is 8 minutes long. I should put this to a test and time it to see what the temporal difference is, but I'm lazy. It seems like the last time I tried to upload a long video to YouTube it took 4 hours. These five videos uploaded in ~20 minutes. Anyway, I digress, I typically only turn on the record button for a bit then shut it off. I then splice together the segments that i like.
However, in this situation I dropped into the rapids and didn't really have the chance to mess with my camera until I exited the rapids. I liked all the footage so I kept it all and created 4 separate segments in order of going downstream with each increment.

Cool pictures. Makes me want to go fishing. Now I can say I floated down the Bull River. Great videos.
