A photograph

The orange chevron and the logo go to the wall. The pill with the cabinet opens the photographer’s cabinet; the pill with the folio, ahead of the tags, opens the folio.

Swipe for the next photograph. The count at the top, 3 / 24, says where you are. On a computer the arrows at the photograph’s sides and the arrow keys do the same.

Tap the photograph, or the full-screen button, to see it alone on black. Tap again for the words. In the app, pinch or double-tap to zoom.

Heart appreciates it. Footprints follow the photographer. Bookmark keeps it in your favourites. Triangle reports it. Nothing is counted in public.

1:1 shows the full-size file.

The three dots hold sharing, with a note of your own if you like, the original file when the photographer allows it, and fill or fit. A private photograph’s link opens only for those who may see it.

Genbaku Dome

Jan Letzel’s 1915 Industrial Promotion Hall stood 160 metres from the hypocenter, almost directly under a blast 600 metres up. The copper skin of the dome melted in the first instant, so the shockwave passed through the steel ribs instead of catching a roof and tearing the building over; the thick side walls took a vertical punch and stayed. Those who were at work inside did not survive. The skeletal remains were kept in the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park so the place and the people would never be forgotten.
