Photos of a Town at a Standstill
A disquieting collection of photographs that capture the stillness in Prypiat, a northern Ukranian ghost town that was once home to the Chernobyl workers. The city has been empty and—owing to radioactive fallout—uninhabitable since 1986. This unsettling group of photos gives a rare opportunity to study a slowly decaying city that, despite once being the home of some 50,000 people, is now utterly and completely lifeless.
