Christchurch Earthquake Images - New Book

The city of Christchurch has changed dramatically over the last seven years as a result of the repeated earthquakes in the area. My latest book is a collection of photos starting from the morning of the 4th September 2010 earthquake through to June 2017 when I photographed the ruins of Christchurch Cathedral. The first few pages show before and after images of one of the intersections in town - illustrating how some areas have been rebuilt although there is still a lot of work to be done. Other shots include the devastation of homes on the cliffs, liquefaction, ruined roads, and the destruction in the city centre. The book will appeal to locals with many photos of familiar buildings and scenery and will give people from outside the area an idea of the impact of the Canterbury earthquakes.

Christchurch Cathedral Ruins

Early in January 2017, I visited Christchurch Cathedral. Well I viewed it through the fences that have surrounded it for almost six years now. Once the heart of the city, it stands in ruins, its fate still uncertain. Most locals have strong opinions about whether it should be saved or not. Some are for and some against but few are neutral. Maybe 2017 will bring a decision!
