The photographs that emerged from the devastation (the quake struck with a force equivalent to 35 Hiroshima-sized nuclear bombs, according to one expert) are chilling, heartrending, and, occasionally, inspiring, as survivors worked to bring order to the chaos and rescue victims still trapped amid what seemed ruins without end.
