The Marauding Tsunami from Above

DigitalGlobe, an imaging and information company, has released free photographs and analysis of the Tsunami that hit South Asia. Be sure to read DigitalGlobe's Usage guidelines before publishing these photos. Sometime later tonight, I will publish a before/after/during rip of these photos. In the meantime, I challenge anyone else who has the right software to beat me to it. Here are the photos:

Here is an explanation and analysis of the images.

BTW, I found these photos at Cyberjournalist -- a blog that I only recently discovered. Beyond the simple hat tip, might I throw a virtual parade for them? Seriously, their blog is one of the best in the sphere.
