Shellbursts, Ardennes 1945

Bootie, what are those marks on the ground?

Bombs?

 

[Bootie]

They are shell bursts. Where an artillery shell has hit the ground and churned up the earth.

Thanks for the reply Bootie .-
One of the things that attracts me to FGM is the quality of the photographs published by you .-

 

[Bootie]

Oh no PoorOldSpike is the purveyor of a lot of these fine shots... I just ported them across for him when our site died a year ago.

 

[PoorOldSpike]

I computer-enhance most of them by enlarging/brightening/darkening/sharpening them.
The FGM photo sections are the best in the world by far..
