This week’s theme is Aftermath. I decided to dig out these photos taken way back in September 2004.
These were the aftermath of Hurricane Frances in Florida. We came out of it with minimal damage to the city but the trees got the brunt of the 100+ mile wind force.
A huge tree that got uprooted and shredded to a little mountain. Notice how big the tree is compared to the truck.
Another unfortunate tree!
The banana trees remained standing but they were badly damaged.
2 weeks after this hurricane, we got hit by another hurricane that took almost the same path. Needless to say, it was an interesting hurricane season that year.
Thanks for visiting my PhotoHunt. Have a great weekend, everyone!
The sheer power of these storms is just awe inspiring. Definitely great pics for the theme.
So much devastation, ugh! Wonderful take on the theme.
Perfect for the theme. Hurricanes are scary!
Oh, that looks bad. Hurricanes can really cause a lot of devastation.
Thanks for sharing. Happy weekend!
The sad aftermath of the hurricane
But great take on the theme
Hurricanes really do create an aftermath. So scary. Great shots for the theme.
For people like me who have never experienced a hurricane, it sounds so scary.
Happy weekend!!

That was a violent storm. I stand in awe at the power of Mother Nature
Oh my! That’s how it looks like too when typhoons hit our country, uprooted trees, debris all around, scary!
interesting hurricane u say..i think i would be scared stiff to face such a hurricane…i can imagine the damage this one can cause. luckily you come out relatively unscathed
Oh no that is scary experience. Hoping you are ok and family too. TC
We just get a lot of snow in Chicago. I’m scared of the wind, so I guess I shouldn’t move to Florida!
WoW!
That makes my aftermath seem trivial!
Oh wow – look at those trees!!!!
Happy Weekend.
I really feel for you in Hurricane season. They seem to come one after the other and do apalling damage.
Happy weekend.
