Tsunami Cancels Nude Photo Shoot
"A mass nude photo shoot planned for Wellington's Breaker Bay beach this morning was cancelled as a result of the tsunami warning in effect.

Wellington City Council emergency management staff contacted the organiser of the event, scheduled for 8am today, and it was agreed the event be postponed.

A tsunami warning is in effect for New Zealand following an 8.8 magnitude earthquake on the Pacific coast of Chile about 7.30pm (New Zealand time) yesterday. The first wave is expected to arrive in the Wellington area about 8.25am today.

City Council emergency preparedness manager Fred Mecoy said the photoshoot was cancelled due to the "obvious concerns we have about safety".

But they were expecting at least 100 nekkid people on the beach for this event. . .
