Japan marks 6 months since earthquake, tsunami

TOKYO (AP) — Last Sunday was the six-month anniversary of the day the massive earthquake and tsunami devastated Japan’s northeast coast.

Some 20,000 people are dead or missing. More than 800,000 homes were completely or partially destroyed. The disaster crippled businesses, roads and infrastructure. The Japanese Red Cross Society estimates that 400,000 people were displaced.

Half a year later, there are physical signs of progress.
Much of the debris has been cleared away or at least organized into big piles. In the port city of Kesennuma, many of the boats carried inland by the tsunami have been removed. Most evacuees have moved out of high school gyms and into temporary shelters or apartments.

Last week the Kyodo News agency distributed an amazing group of combination photographs showing three scenes. The first scene is right after the earthquake and tsunami hit, then three months later and finally, how the scene looks now. (44 images)

This is so insane.

Seriously, gotta love the Japanese. Their determination, discipline, skill and efficiency is just seriously amazing. Wow. I’m stunned. This is completely inspiring.

I dont know how to word this without offending some of my other friends but…

The mothers of my bestfriends Erica and Gabie (and my own) are probably the most inspirational women I know. Each of our stories and characteristics are so amazing and inspiring, I’m so glad to be educated by it.

I’d like to sit here and talk about why theyre so amazing to me in my eyes, but I’m not going to. I’m good saying this much.

Not to say any of my other friend’s mothers arent as admirable, I’m just saying for me. Every mother is unique and amazing in their own special way and realizing how unique all mothers are makes me love and appreciate mine more than I already do.

How do you photograph one of the most secretive countries in the world? Simply photograph what they want you to see. Charlie Crane spent a year getting permission to go in and photograph North Korea. Carefully staged images look almost too eerily perfect.
