Christchurch Earthquake - When the Bricks are Down

Images, eqnz.chch.2010

A view after the 7.1 magnitude earthquake in Christchurch 04 September 2010. Victoria Street. So sad to see history die - both buildings and business. Given a bit of a HDR process to add some of what I was "feeling" at the time.
