Unknown tsunami photographs. Powerful.

[oblivious]

This is photo number 6 in the series of 17. Scroll back to the first photo and go through the series. It's eerie imagining myself in their position. What would I have done, transfixed by the phenomenon, realising too late what it means. People holding up their umbrellas to shield themselves from the wave.

It seems impossible. Surreal.

4. I wondered about that. It says AP only on the first and last in the series

Not on the most incredible ones in the middle.

7. Strange coincidence. Last night I dreamed that I saw a tsunami wave

heading toward the high rise hotel that I had just checked in to.
I went to bed, looked out the window, and saw the wave crashing around me. I knew that I was going to die, and just closed my eyes and drew the covers over my head, lamenting that I did not have time to call my wife and daughter to tell them I loved them.
