DOCUMENTING DISASTER: JAPAN EARTHQUAKE AND TSUNAMI AFTERMATH

It's been a stressful time for everyone these past couple of days and even more stressful time for the news guys working their asses off as there has been loads of requests for pictures from agencies/newspapers all over the world, requests to do live interviews and inquiries for fixers to guide TV/photo journalists flying in, to the disaster sites. The earthquake hit late afternoon last Friday, March 11, 2011, and I headed up north first thing on Saturday to get what I could.

Here are just a few pics to share with all of you. Not too disturbing, but a little disturbing at the same time. Please don't use any of the photos without permission.

If you have any questions, feel free to shoot me an email at chris[at]chrisonepointeight.com. Thanks, and stay safe everyone in Japan.
