CHERNOBYL, Take 2! - Back through my archive!...

☢️ T H E - C H A L L E N G E R ☢️

I liked how this tree was growing from the bottom of the monstrous DUGA Radar - which towers out of frame. It's got a long way to go before it challenges the radar!

The massive, 150m high x 550m long structure near Pripyat, within the Chernobyl exclusion zone, was erected to detect incoming missiles.

It's sometimes referred to as "The Woodpecker" - on account of the noise it made while in operation.
