The pictures were taken from a series documenting the aftermath of the Lushan Earthquake in Sichuan Province on 20 April 2013. The disaster resulted in 186 people dead, 21 missing, and 11,248 injured. About 1.72 million people were affected by the quake, while an initial estimate by the International Red Cross on Saturday put the number needing emergency shelter, water and food at 120,000. The China Earthquake Administration (CEA) recorded a magnitude 7.0 earthquake, while the US Geological Survey said it had measured 6.9.
