Sfearthquake3b


A dramatic photograph taken at some personal risk: a major fire rages quite close to the rooftop where this was shot during an era when camera equipment was heavy and required a tripod. If the wind had shifted in the photographer's direction a swift evacuation would have been difficult. This event was one of the worst natural disasters in United States history.

Original Photographer: Chadwick, H. D. (US Gov War Department. Office of the Chief Signal Officer.) Edits by Durova. Appears at San Francisco earthquake of 1906.
