For those who are fascinated by images of weather and natural phenomenon, it doesn't get much better than this.

Wow - thanks for the link - they are fascinating.

I'm always envious when I see this type of photo and article. My jealousy comes from not being there when the event happened. We had a 4.5 earthquake here in Cental IL and I couldn't even find a cracked foundation where I live!

BTW - Great pics and thanks for the link!

Hey Folks,

I agree those are fantastic photos - but that should be second to the devastation being wrought on an absolutely beautiful group of people who live there. Chaiten has been evacuated, and Futaleufu is nearly evacuated. It'd be great if some people here on (edit:) NPN might be able to help out a little:

Blog

Thanks.

Cheers

Carl
