This time last week we were exploring one of the most toxic places in the world. We climbed to the top of an abandoned apartment block that hasn’t been lived in since April 1986. We walked on soil that has been infiltrated with deadly radioactive particles. We went to...
A quick preface: I didn’t have a tripod with me for the 2 days in Chernobyl and as a result, the image quality of a lot of the photos from inside buildings aren’t as crisp as I would have liked. I had to crank up the ISO dramatically or shoot with a very fast...
There are seemingly countless beautiful, interesting, and unique destinations to visit on this planet and we're slowly trying to tick as many of them as possible off our list. Only a very small number of them, however, retain that powerful sense of awe, the genuine...
