A digitally manipulated photograph of twisted reinforcing rods amongst the rubble from the demolition of QEII. The photographer comments, "These rarely seen worms live in the pressurised earth under the foundations of buildings. They need a damp soil and be under at least 100 pounds of pressure per square inch. After the destructive force of an earthquake they swiftly rise to the surface through gaps in the rubble. Unfortunately they quickly die and then crystallise as hard as iron in the dry low pressure air".
An aerial photograph of the Forsyth Bar building near Victoria Square. The photograph is captioned by BeckerFraserPhotos, "The Forsyth Barr building at 764 Colombo Street, with Victoria Square behind. This building is staying".
A photograph of the Oxford on Avon Bar and Restaurant on the corner of Colombo Street and Oxford Terrace. The entrance has been boarded up with plywood and cracks can be seen in the building's facade.

Fenced off for safety. People who regularly use Stanmore Rd will be happy when the demolition is complete".
