Chernobyl infrared images that make goose bumps

Not so long ago, Russian photographer Vladimir Migutin went to the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone, armed with an Kolari Vision infrared camera. The thousands of square meters surrounding the Chernobyl nuclear power plant are a strange transitional space. A place from which people stay away 30 years after the tragedy, but in which animals continue to live and nature develop.

Using the entire spectrum of the camera and a special infrared filter, Migutin captured this incredible surrealistic environment. He was surprised that he did not feel the melancholy atmosphere at all when he wandered around the territory that became the site of such a terrible catastrophe and grief. Instead, it seemed to him that he was in "a kind of paradise on another planet."

An infrared filter helped Migutin show Chernobyl in a completely new, unexpected light and opened up something new, amazing and previously inaccessible to our eyes.

A photographer’s visit to Chernobyl and the pictures taken there are a reminder of the persistence of nature and a warning about the consequences of human-developed technologies that can have an incredibly long-term effect on our planet.
