Chernobyl, except for Fukushima in 2001 in Japan, is one of the greatest nuclear disasters of the modern age. The nuclear accident occurred on April 26, 1986 and had the whole of Europe and the world in a fist. A historical moment in which nuclear energy began to be said for the serious consequences of clean energy at first.
This time it was a Russian photographer named Vladimir Migutin who has ventured into the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone with an infrared camera. An infrared camera that has managed to capture beautiful photographs that illustrate the impact of the area and how nature has broken in in such a way to make the echoes of the disaster disappear in time.
Migutin has used a full spectrum camera and a 590nm infrared filter to document an environment as surreal as it is apocalyptic. As he claims, he was transported to another world in which time was frozen for nature to ride on to transform him.
Has been able to photograph the area with that infrared filter to capture very compelling visions of Chernobyl. This photographer's photography portrays an abandoned scene with a light that humans cannot see.
A visit to an inhospitable place and in which is the ghost of the past of what was Chernobyl and that nuclear catastrophe that put the whole world on notice. Although it must be said that it did not seem that it had much effect for us to meet in 2011 against Fukushima in Japan.
You can follow Migutin from on the web, its Instagram and Blog for find more pictures of that visit which made an environment invaded by a large nuclear catastrophe that took place on European soil.
