Kirk here with something I posted last year. Apologies to those of you who have already seen this.
Miyazono (an area in Mashiki-machi) is the only place in Japan to have suffered two shindo (seismic internsity) 7 earthquakes in succession. When I took the first photo, I had no idea I’d be going back to the same place in two days to take another photo. My camera was a simple smartphone – nothing special – but I wonder if mine might not be a rather rare set of photos showing what two Shindo 7 quakes in one spot actually means.
Today is April 16 – exactly six years since the second quake. I hope my days as a disaster photographer ended with these shots. https://www.facebook.com/Kumamotoi/posts/5220478308025559
