Why
My point was that those that hadn't exploded wouldn't and would still
look like solid shot. The would weigh considerably less than solid shot
and would be even less likely than solid shot to create craters at the
end of their flight.. Historically Russian shells were notoriously
unreliable.
Not to mention the fact that he was scared as hell because he was under
fire. It's illogical that he would go around picking up heavy solid shot
to arrange a photo shoot.

Well I guess, my problem is that I consider news photos as editorial
illustrations, not some super meaningful documentation.
Strangely without
captions those particular photos have no particular meaning

I agree.
BTW, if the balls actually landed on the road weren't placed there, where
are the craters?

If the Iwo Jima photo was taken in a studio in California is it an any
less
powerful image? Would it have less meaning to a people at war? It is easy
to sit
