Buildings in the process of being demolished in Kaiapoi. To the left is the Gospel Way Outreach Church, the front wall removed so that the inside of the building is exposed. Next door, the rubble from Bells Auctions is being cleared by a digger.

A photograph of SPCA Field Officer Vanessa Hampton releasing a pigeon at SPCA Canterbury as a symbol of love, hope and renewal. The pigeon was named Barney Rubble due to the fact that it was found amongst the rubble and debris of the ChristChurch Cathedral.

A view 4 weeks after the 7.1 magnitude earthquake in Christchurch.
St Johns Church corner of Hereford Street and Latimer Square.
Given a bit of a HDR process to add some of what I was "feeling" at the time.
The front of Christ Church Cathedral. The upper wall has crumbled leaving the inside space exposed. Steel bracing has been placed against the front wall to limit further damage. A walkway from Gloucester Street to the Square was opened up for a few days to allow the public a closer look at the cathedral.
A photograph submitted by Ginny Larsen to the QuakeStories website. The description reads, "I work for Neighbourhood Trust in Mairehau/Shirley. In April 2011 a group of people from Liberty Church came down to Christchurch to gift 100s of Easter boxes to residents – lots of treats to bring a smile.".
A photograph submitted by Ginny Larsen to the QuakeStories website. The description reads, "Community meeting at St Albans Baptist Church. Around 70 leaders of community groups met regularly to work on how to help the Shirley/Papanui community recover under the superb leadership of Chris Mene (then Community Board Chair).".
A photograph of emergency tape cordoning off Hereford Street near the end of the Christchurch City Council building. Tape has also been draped around St Elmo Courts as a cordon.
Members of the public view the damaged tower of Christ Church Cathedral. Bracing has been placed on the front wall to the right to limit further damage. In the centre of the crowd stands a wire cage filled with stones. After the earthquake, love notes to Christchurch were written on the stones.
A view down Victoria Street from the corner of Victoria Street and Bealey Avenue. On the left is the damaged Knox Church, where the brick has crumbled but the wooden roof frame is still intact. Behind is the the BDO building and on the left is an empty demolition site.

A photograph captioned by BeckerFraserPhotos, "Peter Majendie, in the middle of his installation '185 Empty Chairs', which remembers the 185 who died as a result of the 22nd February earthquake. The chairs are different so that you can find a chair to remind you in some way of the people who died. Peter told me about the important paintings of chairs, such as Van Gogh and Gaugin's paintings of chairs and the drawing of Dickens's Chair published above his obituary that influenced his decision to remember the lost lives with chairs".
A panoramic photograph taken at the front of Christ Church Cathedral. The front of the cathedral has steel bracing against it to limit further damage. The upper part of the front wall has crumbled completely, exposing the inside space. The Chalice sculpture is to the right and the BNZ building can be seen in the background.

Damage to the north side of ChristChurch Cathedral. The damaged windows have been boarded up and weeds can be seen growing in the lawn. A walkway from Gloucester Street to the Square was opened up for a few days to allow the public a closer look at the cathedral.
The cartoon shows a large church and two other buildings swaying around on spiral earthquake strengthening seismic restraints. As they sway they ring 'doing, doing!' Refers to the intention to strengthen buildings after the Christchurch earthquake of 4th September and its numerous after shocks.

Members of the public take photographs of the damaged Christ Church Cathedral. A walkway from Gloucester Street to the Square was opened up for a few days to allow the public a closer look at the cathedral. The tower and the front wall of the building have partially collapsed. Steel bracing has been added to the front wall for support.
Photograph captioned by Fairfax, "Work to restore and earthquake-strengthen the badly damaged historic St Paul's Trinity Pacific Presbyterian Church on Cashel Street has begun after resource consents were granted by the Christchurch City Council, and a preferred contractor was selected recently. Site manager Mike McKee inspects the domes to be restored".
