Wow! That picture is absolutely crazy! Being a mid-Atlantic guy, we don't get much in the way of shaking. The one that I have experienced was...intersting. We don't look like a tea kettle ready to explode though.

How interesting! If you do locate other pictures I would love to see them. As a young child my family went on a two week trip by truck & camper from our home (Kentucky) to Yellow Stone National Park. That trip is something I will always cherish and appreciate. All of the hot springs, geysers, mud pots and such amazed me! They still do.
Your backyard view is really nice.
Being an east coast guy, the most I've done is survive the outskirts of a hurricane.
We has a 3 or 4 hit here a couple years ago. I swore it was just the HVAC unit having issues in the wing of the school I work in.
I'm a amateur photographer. Even with Lightroom to organize my pictures, (Well over 25,000) I don't take the time to tag them, or name them. I still have many of my pics over in Picasa. I think this is from the original that I cropped and put it on my Facebook Page. It was also taken on my small 4 megs Cannon Point & Shoot. I now have more high end gear, so hopefully before I move in 2014, we can get some heavy rainfall & a 4.0. In the picture I posted, it was a 4.0. Man, I would love to see it with a 5.0.
It's great having no one behind me. It's those who live to the sides & across the street who destroy the view.
This area is full of Hot Springs. The biggest and most well known is about 2 1/2 miles from my place. Harbin Hot Springs. I'm there on a weekly basis.
The steam plume on the right side in front is probably a well-head. The other plumes, with a broad base, are the drift from the cooling towers. [You ain't been miserable until you've worked on a cooling tower at The Geysers in the winter.]
The one in the middle is the Geyser that shoots off steam all the time. There are a few others right near there as well. The most I've seen in 3 yrs from my place is 1 big one and 2 small ones which are part of the plant.
When the 4.0 hit, I took the pictures about 10 to 15 mins after the quake if my memory serves me correctly. We walked down to the edge of the field to get a better view, and you could see columns of steam all the way over toward Mt Saint Helena.
We get the electric cut off here all the time. What cracks me up is that the main Turbine is only about 3 miles from my house and can be seen in the picture. I've thought about getting one long extension cord and running that sucker up there and plugging it in.
Wow! Impressive photo, Sir!
I live in Sweden, and in my county we had a 2,5 a couple months ago wich is pretty much unheard of since we're on bedrock. The quake was 12 miles below the surface, and the scientists are scratching their heads as to how it's possible. People still talk about it more or less on a daily basis, guess we would've all had severe traumas if a 4 struck...
Holy cow
Thanks for sharing!
People on this forum are absolutely incredible. I wish we could discover new land and inhabit it all together. :-) - Deadphans
Crazy Pic. Mother Nature at her finest!!!!!
That's just crazy... Don't plug into a substation... 138 thousand volts, does crazy things when it hits a small gauge line... Just take the word of a power plant worker...
