Can You Hear It?

The language of photography. A picture I took a few days ago in a park in Bucharest, Romania. Model: Madalina. If you wish, you can see the original pic here. I think Madalina has hypnotic eyes...

This is dedicated to all the victims of the recent Fukushima disaster in Japan. God bless them. I took the photo in a park close to my home (Brussels, Belgium). I also made the quick miniature sketch based on the Fukushima nuclear plant site (see some details and more info below).

More facts:

The "Fukushima nuclear accidents" are a series of ongoing equipment failures and releases of radioactive materials at the Fukushima I Nuclear Power Plant, following the 2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami on 11 March 2011. The plant comprises six separate boiling water reactors maintained by the Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO). Reactors 4, 5 and 6 had been shut down prior to the earthquake for planned maintenance. The remaining reactors were shut down automatically after the earthquake, but the subsequent 14 metres tsunami flooded the plant, knocking out emergency generators needed to run pumps which cool and control the reactors. The flooding and earthquake damage prevented assistance being brought from elsewhere.

Evidence arose of partial core meltdown in reactors 1, 2, and 3; hydrogen explosions destroyed the upper cladding of the buildings housing reactors 1, 3, and 4; an explosion damaged the containment inside reactor 2; and multiple fires broke out at reactor 4. In addition, spent fuel rods stored in spent fuel pools of units 1–4 began to overheat as water levels in the pools dropped. Fears of radiation leaks led to a 20 kilometres (12 mi) radius evacuation around the plant. Workers at the plant suffered radiation exposure and were temporarily evacuated at various times. On 18 March, Japanese officials designated the magnitude of the danger at reactors 1, 2 and 3 at level 5 on the 7 point International Nuclear Event Scale (INES). Power was restored to parts of the plant from 20 March, but machinery damaged by floods, fires and explosions remained inoperable.

On 25 March, Japan's nuclear regulator announced a likely breach and radiation leak in the containment vessel of the unit 3 reactor, the only one at the plant using MOX fuel. World wide measurements of radioactive fallout released from the reactors were reported by New Scientist to be "nearing Chernobyl levels". It reported that the preparatory commission of the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty Organization had measured levels of iodine-131 at 73% and caesium-137 at 60% the levels released from the Chernobyl disaster. Food grown in the area was banned. Tokyo officials declared its tap water unsafe for infants for a short time. Plutonium has been detected in the soil around the plant in five locations. The soil samples were taken on 22 March 2011.

The IAEA announced on 27 March that workers hospitalized as a precaution on 25 March had been exposed to between 2 and 6 Sv of radiation at their ankles when standing in water in unit 3. The international reaction to the accidents was also concerned. The Japanese government and TEPCO have been criticized for poor communication with the public. On 20 March, the Chief Cabinet Secretary Yukio Edano announced that the plant would be closed once the crisis was over. Read more.

Big Bang Generation

By Duran Duran (Lyrics)

Falling into space at the end of time black as the black in your eyes
Staring through a hole in the ozone there's nobody home
to play back your answers from Climax out of blue
with just another high no there must be something new
Now that I'm so alien

Entering the atmosphere don't know what is waiting here oh no
If there's nothing left to fear when we come
to gather in the big bang generation

Teardrop in the sky bursting my eye sound of the morning sigh
This life is stranger than fiction surreal addiction it's all I recognize
Feeding of the habit losing control where is it leading to
now that I'm the alien

Entering the atmosphere don't know what is waiting here oh no
If there's nothing left to fear when we come
to gather in the big bang generation
(Feel like I'm losing control) Big bang generation
(Now that I'm here all alone) Big bang generation
(Feel like I'm losing control) Big bang generation
(Feel like I'm losing it) We're gonna come to gather here

Where you coming from when we gonna burn out don't know
Having so much fun greetings from the big bang generation
Big bang generation meet you in the big bang generation
Together in the big bang generation together
with the big bang generation

Waiting to Bloom
.

The World's Like
a Flower

By Free Faller

The world’s like a flower
Either fallen or grown
The leaves cover secrets
And the petals are shown
We're like a flower

The world's like a rose
Every rose has its thorns
If we make a mistake
The skin gets torn
We're like a flower

The world's like a daisy
Pretty and bright
We all have our colors
But in a way we're just right
We're like a flower

The world's like a flower
All the thorns will pass through
The world's like a flower
Just waiting to bloom
