The stripped framework of an industrial processing line stands exposed to the sky in this photograph of a fire-damaged factory in the Hiroshima area following the atomic bombing of August 6, 1945. With its roof and walls burned away, the machinery -- likely used for kiln firing or chemical processing -- remains visible amid charred timber and debris, while terraced hillsides in the background attest to the facility's location on the city's outskirts.
