Pripyat Train Bridge

This is the bridge our train crossed going back and forth to Chernobyl every day.  Towards the end of the week, we went to this spot to photograph the bridge with the Chernobyl Nuclear Reactor Number 4 and its new sarcophagus in the background.  As you can tell, it was very overcast that afternoon…..

Chernobyl Nuclear Reactor #4

Wow!!  Its been over a month since we left the Ukraine.  I can’t believe it and I haven’t processed many photos from that trip yet.  Heck, I’ve been trying to finish up photos from a 2016 Europe trip….  I can’t imagine how many years it will take me to process the tons of photos I took at Chernobyl.  This is one of the few I’ve completed so far.  Blair and I explored Nuclear Reactor #5, which never got completed.  We found this view looking back at the melted down Reactor #4.  As you can tell, they have the protective shield over it now.

Red #3

I took this photo of the green on Red #3 a few weeks ago before it was taken out.  The Valley Brook Country Club is removing it to add more parking.  They requested a few photos of this spot and a couple of holes before they are gone.  Beautiful spot, don’t you think?
