Doves fly by the gutted Atomic Bomb Dome, (seen in the background), preserved as a landmark for the tribute to the A-Bomb attack, following a speech delivered by Prime Minister Naoto Kan, marking the 66th anniversary of the world's first atomic bombing in Hiroshima on Saturday.
More photos of the post-bomb Hiroshima here.
So many wars over the thousands of years humans have been on this planet The Japanese included. So unfortunate. Even more tragic is the reality that we haven't gotten rid of our instinct to bomb the shit out of life anywhere on earth :(
As Hemingway wrote:
