A photograph of street art. The artwork is on the wall surrounding Waltham Pool and faces towards Wilsons Road. Behind the pool gate is a pile of building material covered in a tarpaulin and weighted down with tyres.
Old tyres on this demolition site near the Casino have been decorated with artificial flowers.
Damage to the New Brighton Union Church. A tarpaulin weighted down with tyres protects part of the church.
A photograph of the earthquake-damaged Observatory tower at the Christchurch Arts Centre. The photograph was taken using a cellphone camera. The top of the tower collapsed during the 22 February 2011 earthquake. The rubble from the tower has been cleared and a tarpaulin has been placed over the top of the broken tower. Tyres have been placed on the tarpaulin to hold it down. A temporary roof has also been constructed over the tower to keep out the rain. Two vehicles are parked in front.

A residential property at 4 Seabreeze Close in Bexley. The number four and 'Still here' have been spray-painted onto the front of the house. A portable toilet, road cones, and old tyres have been left on the section.
Trucks and diggers build large piles of liquefaction silt. One pile has been covered with plastic sheeting, weighted down with tyres. In the foreground can be seen the Bromley sewage treatment ponds. The photographer comments, "Looking NW from the causeway through the sewage wetlands. Mountains of liquefaction silt are being piled up near the corner of Breezes Rd and SH74-Anzac Drive".
