A Los Angeles police officer puts his head down at the Interstate 5 Antelope Valley Freeway interchange where a fellow officer died after a 6.6 earthquake, which devastated the San Fernando Valley and killed 32 people Jan. 17, 1994. Officer Clarence Dean was killed as he rode to work in the dark. His motorcycle soared off a severed edge and crashed into the shattered overpass 43 feet below. For Californians, dealing with earthquakes is almost a way of life. But, for every earthquake as well as other disasters, there is a human toll that we are never prepared for. What is so strong about this picture is that is shows the devastation, but it also shows the humanity all in one photograph, a rare, haunting combination.
