Quake lifts the island


Quake lifts Solomons island metres from the sea;
Residents on the remote island of Ranongga sit on a coral reef exposed by the force of this week's Solomons earthquake, 07 April 2007. The quake lifted the island and pushed out its shoreline by tens of metres, exposing the surrounding reefs that used to attract scuba divers from around the world.
