Crossing the Millau Viaduct Posted by: grschinon
Video duration: 128 seconds The Millau Viaduct is a massive engineering feat. I shot this video of it a few days ago. While the camera certainly doesn't do justice to it, you can still get an idea of the sheer size of the thing. Related: aveyron, millau, viaduct |

Burning car Posted by: grschinon
Video duration: 381 seconds This evening's excitement in rue de la Lamproie... I never thought so much smoke could come from a car. The building next to it, which has just been repainted, is definitely going to need another paint job. Related: brûlée, burn, car, chinon, de, incendie, la, lamproie, rue, voiture |

Flood of the Vienne, March 4th 2007 Posted by: grschinon
Video duration: 319 seconds This is about as high as I've seen the river since I moved here in 1999. Most of the footage that you see here, except that which is oubviously *meant* to be the river, is dry land normally. On the footage taken up at the castle and also towards the end of this clip, you can see the land mass to the South of Chinon, and it's basically a huge lake right now.
