Height of conflict
August 15th 1945, 2 weeks before documents were finalized, was VJ Day. Highlighting the end of around 6 years of worldwide violence and carnage. The war was over and people across the world were celebrating.
So anyone who's doing any research know there's another side to the story ofcourse. Japan was left in a near total state of ruin which led to decades long US occupation of fixed replenishing, we all knew eventually this would help Japan as a whole bounce back in great proportions but scars still remain to this day.
I tried to make this side view look like it was of this time. But I'm not that insensitive and left some pieces that ruined the immersion, such as trees that still have plantlife on them, which wouldn't have been in any photo here in '45, raised the noise as well. And frankly, there aren't a whole lot of ways to make the atomic dome look like a positive shot, so I didn't even bother trying to make that the idea.
Because I'm ultra-conservative with space, and I can't just buy new beefy memory cards everyday this is the best frame I have. I never shoot RAW, I refuse to. I need the space to keep trying new angles and be experimental with my spots.
Again: I do not condone atomic warfare, I'm just not going to say WW2 could've ended another way, and I refuse to talk against the US. I love Japan and respect the people who died that day and the ones who mourn, war is still awful, war never changes.
