Japan Earthquake

 This is really scary to know an earthquake did this, killed so many people, destroyed so many  things, people lost jobs, got contaminated with nuclear "stuff" radiation.

I'd say there's balance, and it stood clear of mergers.

 This is really sad, it makes you think how it would feel to lose your home or family members in such a tragic way, lose memories and all.
Rule of thirds, balance.

People's memories, treasures, beloved things all gone.
so fast, so many died, so many mourn for those who did.
balance, rule of thirds, simplicity.
