Description: Manipulated photograph consisting of several photographs from the Battle of Zonnebeke in Belgium during the first World War. Caption: "An episode after the Battle of Zonnebeke. Australian Infantry moving forward to resist a counter attack. On the-extreme right a machine brought down in flames is burning fiercely. Our advance is supported by bombing planes, whilst the enemy is supporting his attack with a heavy barrage." Background descriptions: Arbuckle, Alex Q. "One man's record of the war to end all wars". Mashable. Archive thereof: https://web.archive.org/web/20210507014841/https://mashable.com/feature/frank-hurley-on-the-western-front/ Truth and photography. sl.nw.gov.au. State Library of New South Wales (2017). Archived from the original on 20 March 2022. "None but those who have endeavoured can realise the insurmountable difficulties of portraying a modern battle by the camera. To include the event on a single negative, I have tried and tried, but the results are hopeless. Now, if negatives are taken of all the separate incidents in the action and combined, some idea may then be gained of what a modern battle looks like."
