It's probably done with javascript. I saw a very similar thing done with the Queensland floods. They were able to align the images very well so you saw exactly the same view before and after. A lot easier to do when you're working with flat aerial photos I suppose :) > The images show the sever physical damage that the city has suffered, > and by doing so allows one to sense some of the intense human > suffering (and death) that has taken place. Indeed. The "Corner of Lichfield, High and Manchester streets" is a scene I ran past on my way back to the office. Seeing that upside-down dome on the road was totally surreal. I didn't realise the Baptist Church had collapsed entirely. It was damaged quite severely in September and they had scaffolding holding the facade up. That church is located next to the central fire station, and across the river from the 9/11 memorial.
