Lyubov Sirota Returns to Pripyat
by ryan is the supernicety at 5:30 pm EST, Mar 8, 2004

] On May 9, 2000, Victory Day (celebrating the end of World
] War II in the former Soviet Union), former inhabitants of
] the Chernobyl "company town" of Pripyat were allowed to
] visit their old home. Aleksandr (Sasha) Sirota convinced
] his mother, the poet and anti-nuclear activist Lyubov
] Sirota, to accompany him and his friend Maksim on this
] painful journey. Sasha made the following photographic
] record of the visit, and the comments underneath the
] pictures are by Lyubov Sirota herself.

Another photoblog of chernobyl... At the end of this one, there is a link to another one. This really is interesting. In addition, the main purpose of the site is to reflect on poetry written about the disaster.
