Sacks of radioactive material stored in large black bags near the destroyed Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant, Japan. It is three and a half years since the ‘triple-disaster’ hit Japan with a large Earthquake, Tsunami, and nuclear disaster affective large areas of Japan leading to the displacement of at least 160,000 people from their original homes due to fear of radiation.

Seeing the landscape and talking with people affected by the disaster reminded me so much of my time researching the Chernobyl nuclear accident.
