Suomi: It. ampuu ryssän tähystystornin tuleen Koitsanlahdessa yöllä
Description
Suomi: Bofors 40 mm IT-tykki ampuu ryssän tähystystornin tuleen Koitsanlahdessa, Parikkalassa, yöllä jatkosodan hyökkäysvaiheen aikaan. Tykin aiheuttama paineaalto tai sen hyppääminen taaksepäin ampuessa ja valokuvaajan vaistomainen liike ovat voineet aiheuttaa triplavalotuksen.
English: Finnish soldiers firing a Swedish-made Bofors 40 mm anti-aircraft gun at a Soviet observation tower at night near Koitsa Bay, Parikkala, during the Continuation War. The Finnish invasion of the USSR had started seven days prior. Possible explanations for the triple-exposure in the photo: 1) The shockwave of the gun firing has caused it or 2) the gun jumped back a bit and the photographer instinctively panned to the right, keeping the barrel in roughly the same position. The rate of fire on a Bofors 40 mm gun was usually around 120 rounds per minute (2.0 rounds per second), improving slightly when the barrels were horizontal as gravity assisted the feeding mechanism.
Depicted place Parikkala

Public domain
This photograph is in the public domain in Finland, because either a period of 50 years has elapsed from the year of creation or the photograph was first published before 1966. The section 49a of the Finnish Copyright Act (404/1961, amended 607/2015) specifies that photographs not considered to be "works of art" become public domain 50 years after they were created. The 50 years from creation protection period came into force in 1991. Before that the protection period was 25 years from the year of first publication according to the §16 of the law of protection of photographs of 1961. Material already released to public domain according to the 1961 law remains in public domain, and therefore all photographs (but not photographic works of art) released before 1966 are in the public domain. See Commons:Copyright rules by territory/Finland for details.

If you think this picture should be considered a work of art, nominate it for deletion.
