If you appreciated my 14 March post that mentioned the ABC site showing before & after images of some tsunami scenes, you’ll likely also appreciate this somewhat similar set of photos from the Sacramento Bee that show 3 sequential images shot from the same perspective – of maybe a dozen different scenes. Thanks to Cathy Rogers & Jill Watson for alerting us to these.
Many of those towns may never be rebuilt, given the possibility of future tsunamis, but debris removal (accounting for over a quarter of disaster costs) also removes some of the bad memories and opens the way for a future rebirth… Congratulations to the Japanese in those regions for their huge progress!
