Christchurch

One of my FB friends, David Galea, has posted this image of Christchurch, taken during the earthquake.
I thought I'd share it here too.

Scary and awesome both at the same time.

You can't blame people for wanting to move away, one of them in a lifetime is probably too much.

'Scary and awesome' is right. He must have had the camera close to him but to have the presence of mind to use it is amazing. I mean where he was must have been shaking pretty bad too.
