Lost Images of the First Atomic Bombing -- After the United States detonated the atomic bomb " Little Boy " over the Japanese city of Hiroshima on August 6, 1945, American photographers surveyed the unimaginable destruction the blast had wrought. Their photos of the desolated  cityscape  remained  classified  for decades, but with this year's exhibit at the International Center of Photography   in New York  City, they are now accessible to the general public for the first time.
