Suggester says, "I just have to say that this is an amazing peice, not only it it well composed and great in that way, but the really tragical story behind this image shakes me to the core so much, I mean, those gasmasks are for kids, and that was a school. It's truly a tragical piece of history that burns into my mind. Well worth a notice!" Chernobyl Wallpaper 2 by *lordyo

Gas mask help you by not breathing in any of the contaminated air- Radiation is extremely harmful to unprotected skin, imagine how damaging it could be if it got into your body.

I'm hoping that I can use this in a project of mine for a photoshop class. We have to take an image that we feel represents life and another that represents death and put them on a billboard. This is incredibly eerie and I would like to use it as my death picture.

This is a very eerie and frightening shot, no matter how petrified the place is. Just by how everything is so cluttered and decayed, you know that something tragic in a catastrophic scale took place several years ago. At first glace I thought those were limbs of baby dolls.
