The most powerful earthquake to hit Mexico in 100 years

Image
A few minutes before midnight Lulu woke me up and said there's an earthquake, I felt it as soon as I woke up. We were just walking outside when it stopped, but only for an instant the next quake was harder. We could hear the windows in the house rattling, dogs in the distance could be heard howling, except our dogs, they just wanted to go back to bed. The hole thing only lasted only a few minutes. We turned on the TV but no news yet, the only thing on was pre-recorded news. It took about 30 minutes before the reporting started, that's when we learned it was better than an 8 in magnitude.  The quake originated in the Pacific, our house is about 370 miles NW from the epicenter.

In this example we place our main subject in the center resulting in less a pleasing composition.  2. SYMMETRY & CENTERED COMPOSITION This is the opposite of the rule of thirds where instead we center our main subject. By doing so we need to consider the...

Devastation in Tenancingo

Image
Saturday the 23rd another quake hit Mexico, we did not feel that one, but the quake on the 19th was the most devastating.  People's nerves are on edge as the death toll has climbed to over 300. The people in our town have gone about their work the best they can as cleanup operations continue. The people of Mexico pull together in a crisis like this, food and water are distributed to the needy and you can see truck loads of goods heading to the worst spots hit.    This was once a house  now its a pile of rubble This church, Diócesis de Tenancingo, sustained heavy damage as seen is these photos The older buildings took the most damage Capilla de Jesús Catholic Church note the crack in the dome A family cleans up what's left of their house
