How can this world be coming to an end when there is still such beauty in it?
wether you choose to agree, or disagree with them, some people are blaming the moon for the earthquake &tsunami. saying its because of the moon being so close to earth that its gravitational pull was what made the tsunamis as hard hitting as they were.
i dont agree or disagree, im staying neutral to that discussion.

but this "beauty" may have come with an 8,000+ cost of life.

I don't know the math but I find it hard to believe that the moon would actually amplify any of the effects of the earthquake. If anything it would have just triggered it. And whether the moon had an influence or not, it's just one variable among many. It would've happened eventually, moon or no moon.

Anyway, I'm hoping some of the astrophotographers of this forum have some good pics to share... :cheers:
