I am trying to imagine the shock of a nuclear bomb taking out your city at the moment you sit down for breakfast. It’s not really the kind of thinking you want to start the day with but this morning I came across this impressive photographic report about Hiroshima on the ever great BOSTON BIG PICTURE.
I have heard and read a lot about Hiroshima, but never seen such cold and haunting images showing the before and after of the bombing on this very day, 64 years ago.
Photography can be a powerful reminder of history. At duckrabbit this is something we feel strongly about. On the day Britain also buried Harry Patch, the last veteran from WW1, its important to never forget the sacrifice; the loss of innocence.
