Aerial View Of Earthquake DamageIn this aerial view of an urban environment, deep crevices slice through a neighborhood indicating the potential damage of earthquakes and similar natural disasters. This dramatic shot of earthquake damage is actually a Photoshop composite created for advertising and editorial purposed to help educate the public about the dangers of earthquakes and the need for preparation and emergency plans. Depictions of Earthquake Destruction
Depictions of earthquake damage, such as this aerial view of an earthquake ravaged Los Angeles, can be used to advertise and promote services and products ranging from emergency rations to evacuation plans to construction materials. This dramatic view of crevices created by earthquake faults and fault lines, while fictional, nonetheless drives home the potential disaster that an earthquake can be. Creating Illustrated Earthquake Damage after effects
To create this illustration of earthquake damage and after effects, I used Photoshop to combine the cracked earth of a drained rice paddy in Myanmar with an aerial view of Los Angeles photographed from the window of a commercial airliner. The effect is one of huge, deep crevices following fault lines as the earthquake fractured the earth tearing apart roadways and buildings. This image can be cropped for vertical, horizontal or square use and reads well even at small thumbnail sizes. The drama of the deep cracks through the city immediately catch one's eye and compels one to read the accompanying text and headlines. This is a picture of a natural disaster, a photo of an earthquake, and shot of what might happen in "The Big One".
