| Use in article (WP:NFCC#7) | 1929 Bahamas hurricane | ||
| Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8) | The image illustrates the extent of flooding in Augusta, Georgia, due to rains caused by the 1929 Bahamas hurricane. Augusta was the epicenter of record flooding wrought over the Southeastern United States due to moisture supplied by the hurricane. The floods were also the worst in the city's history. The photo provides valuable and visual context to supplement extensive discussion about the impact and scale of the Augusta floods. | ||
| Not replaceable with free media because (WP:NFCC#1) |
There is no free equivalent of this photograph, so the image cannot be replaced by a free image. The flooding depicted abated soon after the storm's passage, so this image represents a unique documentation of the flood that could not be replicated at a different place or at a different time. | ||
| Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3) | The image has been partially cropped and resized to be as small as possible while still conveying its illustrative purpose. Details not pertinent to the image's purpose have been omitted. The image is only used in one article. | ||
| Respect for commercial opportunities (WP:NFCC#2) |
This is a low-resolution reproduction and crop of the original image. Its use for educational purposes is allowed on the source website, and as such it is not believed that its educational usage on Wikipedia will compete with the rights owner's commercial opportunities. | ||
