Images of Hiroshima and Nagasaki

The shadow of the parapets are imprinted on the surface of the bridge, 2,890 feet (880 meters) south-south-west of the hypocenter. These shadows give a clue as to the exact location of the hypocenter.

In the vicinity of the Chamber of Commerce In the vicinity of the Chamber of Commerce. Nothing is left of the Army Service Corp Replacement Unit or the Artillery Replacement Unit.

Remains of the Shima Surgical Hospital at the hypocenter Remains of the Shima Surgical Hospital at the hypocenter. The torii (shrine gate) stands over the approach to the Hiroshima Gokoku-jinja (shrine for the war dead).

Hiroshima as seen from the edge of the Kanda Bridge about three hours after the explosion.

The terrain and smaller size of Nagasaki reduced the destruction of life and property as compared to that of the atomic bomb explosion over Hiroshima, although the bomb dropped on Nagasaki was significantly more powerful. About 40 percent of the city's buildings were completely destroyed or severely damaged.

Survivors built make-shift huts from the rubble.

The burns are in a pattern corresponding to the dark portions of the kimono she was wearing at the time of the explosion.

Hair loss caused by exposure to radiation.

Keloids form on the legs of a solider exposed to the radiation 2,950 feet (900 meters) from the hypocenter.

Severe keloids, or scarring, caused by thermal radiation.
