These are a couple videos of mountain lover Madison Elrick on Lake Louise in Canada’s Banff National Park as she rows through some candle ice (aka needle ice). What’s candle ice? I’m glad you asked, because I’m just the man to Wikipedia copy/paste that for you: Candle ice is a

This is some historical black and white footage from The Big Easy captured in the 1920’s that’s been upscaled to 60FPS, stabilized, remastered, and colorized, with some sound design added for good measure.

San Francisco airport has two runways (28L and 28R, which at least to me stand for left and right like I label my shoes) 750-feet apart that run perfectly parallel to each other, at times leading to two planes landing at the same time in what looks like a performance

This is a “cinematic hyperlapse” tour of some of Paris’s most famous landmarks. Granted, I have no idea what a cinematic hyperlapse tour is supposed to be, but it was nothing like the Star Tours ride at Disneyland, which is what I was hoping for and was disappointed. There weren’t
