The vulnerable dark

Photographer Rob Gilhooly has uploaded some photographs taken in the tsunami-affected area of Tohoku earlier on after the disaster. There's a slideshow (if you have the right Flash installed) on his blog, where he says, "These photos reflect the sheer emptiness of these once vibrant landscapes … I cannot remember the last time I felt so vulnerable." They are very effective companion shots to his reportage of the events. Available for editorial use via Rob's Photoshelter pages.
