Description

A photograph taken on a rainy day from a position near the Observatory on the Bray-Corbie Road, about a mile from Bray. Vaire-sous-Corbie is on the right and Vaux-sur-Somme on the left. Between these villages, in the valley, can be seen several shell bursts, and the smoke of the enemy barrage put down in support of his counter attack at Hamel.
