Featured image candidate star
This image is a current featured picture candidate. A featured picture should exemplify Wikipedia's very best work, and is therefore expected to meet several criteria. Please feel free to leave comments on Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/World War II

This is a montage image I created for the World War II Main Page in Wikipedia. This was done because there was a consensus among users that the previous picture of the Nagasaki bomb was not adequate. The image is a montage of other pictures found in Wikimedia.

Notes on the pictures used in the montage:

If you wish to contact me, please leave a message on my talk page.

Regards, Dennis Nilsson, Sweden.
