Directly adjacent to an active nuclear power station, this nature reserve with its abandoned huts and ships is a peculiar place that exudes a certain apocalyptic atmosphere. The wave-like shapes of the gravel banks caught my attention, so I positioned the camera low enough to give the impression that the boats were floating on rocky waves.
