great pics...
 
 Really brings the point home how destructive it was, just like one of those pesky tornados in sim city.

I have been staring at those pictures, clicking back and forth for like the past ten minutes.  Wow.

 You can really get a sense of just how HUGE the waves were with this one, eh?

Were there ever photos or footage of the tsunami itself coming in?  Sounds like an odd question, perhaps, but I was on safari and had no t.v., etc.  I wasn't around t.v. again until mid-January.  I could understand if there isn't any footage that survived the tsunami, but just wondering.
