A picture is worth 1,00 words, or so they say.  Tonight, I stumbled across a series of fascinating photos and commentary about the abandoned lands surrounding Chernobyl, titled Pluto’s Realm

In Chernobyl reading from the book of nature is easy, here facts themselves speak eloquently of the truth… wherever I turn, I stumble upon a fact that humans are outlawed and banned from life.

Sixteen or so pages, including some eerie panoramics of entire villages that time forgot, succumbing to decades of neglect and nature’s reclamation.  There’s something poetic about that, I suppose.
