Report - Protvino Particle Collider, Russia

[Dangermouse]

I can't believe what I have just seen and read. I'm going to take another look.

That really is something else.

Brilliant report and by the look of things a brilliant location.

Cheers man, good job

until it turns out id climbed to the depth of Londons deepest Tube station(Hampstead Heath, 58 metres) plus 2 metres. Yes.

Geek.

Great photos and an interesting read!

Not a word that I throw around, but this is truly... epic. I'm a bit confused though; the rotting lift shaft suggests that it's abandoned, so why do the lights still work?

The answer is clearly stated in the text Siologen graciously included above no negate the need for such questions. Perhaps the words are worth the effort to digest?

Put it this way.... In Russia... THERE IS NO ELECTRICITY BILL TOO LARGE!

Theres a lot to be said for communism... that suddenly decides to become capitalist....

 

[cactusmelba]

I'm flabbergasted! EXACTLY what this site's all about, interestingly written and brilliantly photographed... fascinating stuff, well done!

This is one of those reports that didnt need words to make it great, but I'm glad you spent the time to write it up that was a good quality read. serious exploring there.

Brilliant stuff guys. What a great opportunity.

I wish I could shoot that well in the dark. Not being able to check the exposure afterwards must leave little room for error.

That is super bad ass, particle physics and urban exploration total super WIN

Negative film allows much more latitude for error than digital, swo what might look shite and overexposed in a digital image, looks kinda cool on film.

very impressive, seems like it will be hard to top in terms of scale.
