A Look Back at the Lindo Channel in 2021

I live across from the Lindo Channel, which is just a dry ditch most of the year. It's an overflow for Chico Creek, so the only time we have water running is when the city doesn't want downtown flooded. There is a tree in the middle of the channel and for some reason I started taking photos of it back in 2017 and since I'm a creature of habit I have continued to take photos. I miss days here and there, of course, but more often than not I get down there and grab my shots.

Well, good luck with that. These are handheld photos, so the tree is not exactly centered, much as I tried. So, there is tremendous jitter when you try to do things the "easy way", by which I mean just use ffmpeg to squish them in sequence into a video. The results are a bit...jarring.
