Description

A black and white photograph of the Atlantic #3 Blowout, featuring a large black smoke cloud taking up the majority of the upper-right of the image; with the lower half a grass field with the hood of a car visible at the bottom of the image. There is a small spot of yellow discolouration in the lower-centre. On the reverse is a black-ink stamp reading "9490", and written in blue ballpoint is "Wild Atlantic" in the lower-right and an illegible word (possibly a name) in the bottom-left. The photo is not dated, but the fire at Atlantic #3 began 6 September and burned for 60-hours so the photo would have been taken within that timeframe.
