6th August 1945 - 8.15 am , 62 years later a moment to remember in shame, a moment to contemplate what we have learned and how mankind evolved. This is why I add another link today - not about the history of nuclear weaponry but about todays weaponry..... "When will they ever learn?"
this photo appeals to my feelings: contrast of colors, spot of the light, feeling of coldness and loneliness... not mine - just reflection: it makes me think philosophically...
