This photo was taken one year to the day of the Tsunami that ravaged coastal Asia. This one beach(about 200m deep, and open to the ocean on the front and the back) was hit especially hard as limestone cliffs on either side funnelled the tower of water toward this low-lying sand spit stretched between two islands. This massive tree was the only thing left after the waters receded, and so it has become a symbol of life and hope for the villagers who live in this area.
