This time-lapse video should put you in a peaceful mood. Oregon-based photographer John Eklund wants to share the beautiful Northwest region through my eyes with time-lapse photography.  He spent more than a year, from July 2011 to August 2012,  shooting the footage, which consists of 260,000 images, and is worth of 6.3 TB of hard drive space. Here’s what he has to say about his choices of location:

I choose to shoot locations that appeal to the way I would like to interpret the story of time. Here in the Pacific Northwest, there are endless opportunities to document the magnificence of the world around us. I have discovered that when time is the storyteller, a special kind of truth emerges.
