I have just had a link to this photo sent to me today
Apparently it was taken from High up in Lyttleton of the Earth Quake as it happened
Not sure if this is true

As this comes from the bbc in UK Elizabeth it would surely be true.
It says it is from a Japanese satellite, not from someone 'high up in Lyttleton'

Just a quick note.

BBC news on-line indeed shows the radar image from Japanese satellite but the photo was taken by a named person.

I was led to believe that the shot of Christchurch was from a live webcam up in the Port Hills overooking Christchurch, as at one time on the news it was shown as a video recorded at the time the quake struck!

But I could be wrong.

Last nights news had Jack Tane standing in the same spot on the Port Hills were the photo was taken.
The satelite ones were the rainbow looking shot that you would have seen.

Should someone lock this thread and start a new one as we are over 20

Sorry if I have started off something I should'nt have

I thought some of us outside of New Zealand would be interested to see the photo
Please forgive me if I was wrong

 :) Don't worry about it! You did nothing wrong!   A photo is a photo is a photo. Except for some media photos -  I was more concerned for the families re some of the intrusive personal graphic images posted by the news media!
