Cracks along the road in Avonside Drive. The riverbank has slumped towards the river, separating the land from the road and creating these cracks. Road cones warn drivers of the uneven surface. In the distance, a pile of liquefaction can be seen in front of a house.

A bunch of flowers laid beside the Avon River during the River of Flowers event held in Riccarton Bush, commemorating the second anniversary of the 22 February earthquake. The photographer comments, "The organisers told me these were brought by an elderly South African woman. She had a disability so couldn't make it down to the riverbank herself, so she asked the organisers to throw them in on her behalf".
