The Japan earthquake/tsunami and ensuing nuclear power plant problems have caused another round of teeth gnashing in Vermont over the impending closing of the Vermont Yankee power plant (which is being challenged by Entergy), presumably because we get so many earthquakes and tsunamis on the Connecticut River.  As part of this, there is a photographic exhibit in Montpelier on Chernobyl.  I have to admit that my favorite (if such a word applies to this) Chernobyl photo collection is still Filatova Elena Vladimirovna's.  My BIL pointed me to her "Ghost Town" collection years and years ago, and she's slowly added to it since.  If you haven't browsed it since it first made internet waves 8 years ago, it's worth another look.
