Using a Drone, AP's Jae C. Hong Frames Long Beach's Waves Crashing Into Oceanfront Homes
The drone view shows days of pounding surf eroding sand and exposing vulnerable foundations, Hong said.
- The Associated Press photographer Jae Hong captured images of powerful waves striking beachfront homes in Long Beach, California, documenting damage from remnants of Tropical Storm Rachel.
- Remnants of Tropical Storm Rachel generated strong waves that pounded the Long Beach coastline for days, with reports indicating the damage to beachfront structures worsened as the storm activity continued.
- Hong utilized a drone to achieve a unique perspective near ground level, allowing him to convey the height of the waves as they smashed into the vulnerable buildings.
- Persistent waves continue to pound the homes, washing away sand and threatening their foundations, as ongoing coastal erosion exacerbates the structural vulnerability of the buildings.
- The resulting imagery provides a visual record of the power of nature and the consequences of waves pounding the same location over time, documenting the ongoing impact on the Long Beach shoreline.
