The Atom-Ei glows orange in the sunset light. This is the outer shell of the FRM (Forschungsreaktor München, research reactor Munich).
The FRM was the first nuclear technology installation in the Federal Republic Germany, completed in 1957. The shape of the Atom-Ei is also a prominent feature on the coat of arms of the town of Garching.
The old reactor was decommissioned in 2000 and replaced by the Forschungs-Neutronenquelle Heinz Maier-Leibnitz (aka FRM II, research reactor Munich II), built nearby.
The outer shell of the old reactor i a listed building.

This rather tame, active, crested little bird is common all year in eastern forests, where its whistled peter-peter-peter song may be heard even during mid-winter thaws. It is related to the chickadees, and like them it readily comes to bird feeders, often carrying away sunflower seeds one at a time. Feeders may be helping it to expand its range: in recent decades, Tufted Titmice have been steadily pushing north.
Diet consist mostly insects and seeds. Insects make up close to two-thirds of annual diet, with caterpillars the most important prey in summer; also eats wasps, bees, sawfly larvae, beetles, true bugs, scale insects, and many others, including many insect eggs and pupae. Also eats some spiders, snails. Seeds, nuts, berries, and small fruits are important in diet especially in winter.
Tufted Titmice and chickadees are ‘nuclear' species, often joined in winter flocks by a variety of ‘satellite' species. As a ‘nuclear' species, titmice influence the paths that flocks follow, are aggressive mobbers of potential predators, and often take the lead during mobbing events. The calls that titmice utter when mobbing provide information about the presence of predators for hetero specifics as well as con-specifics
In central Florida titmice are year round residents and do not migrate. They are common at most bird feeders throughout the year.
Their range is from two to five acres during breeding season which is from March to June.
I found this one in my backyard. Lake Wales, Florida.
The rising sun filtered through a dense layer of forest fire smoke and a few clouds, viewed across ridges of the foothills of the Colorado Front Range.
A very cold sunset scene on the Heysham headland, with the Harbour and Heysham’s two Nuclear Power Stations in the distance.
The dog walker and her two furry friends had me thinking of the old “Ready Brek” adverts!
the Sun is a gigantic nuclear reactor. Nuclear fusion reactions transformed hydrogen into helium in its core, releasing energy

A peaceful solution must be found, nuclear war is world destruction. Diplomacy is not easy but it is far better than force! I pray that this deal works!!

Thank you for your kind visit. Have a wonderful and beautiful day! xo❤️
I decided to go on a very late night walkabout and happened upon this car park, partly above ground as well as underground, wondering around I came to the edge of the above ground and looked down, there below was a metal grate with these metal rungs beneath that. So I ventured down there and found this before me.
Using the White Balance to Incandescent it gave this wholly creepy hue of green, which any of my followers know I am a fan of; it then struck me when I reviewed it later on a HD screen, how fitting this is to the Dark City Deutschland collection I am concurrently doing. But here's a thought, if World War 3 ever does break out, this will probably be the survivors view for the rest our days.
On another more cheery note, I must stress how grateful I am to my followers, favers, commentators passersby and all, so as always, thank you! :)
PS: I am off for holidays and so will be out of Flickr for a couple of weeks
This is one I pulled over to get: Beth and I had just picked up take-out, we’re returning home to eat, and the sun exploded as we drove onto Veterans Bridge. My smart phone is kind of stupid - so I used Beth’s - and took this photo. The sun was so incredibly bright (I cannot stress this enough), framing presented a challenge. Plus, the wind was howling and blowing dust everywhere. Still, I think the result was worth it. Have a great week, everyone! *Explored: July 31, 2023 - Thank you!
Nuclear X 2 (If you include the Sun behind it).
At 580 Feet tall (176 Meters), these abandoned nuclear cooling towers serve as reminders for the future generations. Nuclear power known for how it's the cleanest form of power to date, still is not widely accepted today.
The Heritage Railroad picks up loads of radioactive contaminated soil ready to be shipped out of the K-25 site in Oak Ridge, TN. VLIX 9553 is in charge of the days train, a GE U23B still sporting its former CSX MOW orange scheme. The Oak Ridge K-25 Site, which opened in 1944, was once home to multiple gaseous diffusion plants, used to produce enriched uranium initially for the Manhattan Project. The enriched uranium would be used in the Little Boy atomic bomb dropped during the atomic bombing of Hiroshima. Following the conclusion of World War II, the site became capable of manufacturing highly enriched uranium, with production lasting till 1964. Six decades after production ceased, decontamination efforts are still underway with the Heritage Railroad playing a vital role in the process.
"Nuclear Waste Land" 1983
Another image with a 'Dark and Light in our World' flavour. This is definitely a dark image .. enhanced by the extreme grain of Infra-red film ! A washed up barrel of .. what ?!? Oil / Chemicals / Nuclear waste .. who knows. .. !! In the distance, a 'Martello' tower .. built to defend against an invasion from Napolean. Dark stormy clouds and foreboding cliffs rise to the right while sombre looking waves roll in from the left. And in Kent .. 'The Garden of England' of all places.
Une autre image sur le thème de l'obscurité et de la lumière dans notre monde. Il s'agit d'une image sombre, accentuée par le grain extrême du film infrarouge ! Un baril de ... quoi ? !? Pétrole / Produits chimiques / Déchets nucléaires ... qui sait. .. ! ! Au loin, une tour Martello construite pour se défendre contre une invasion de Napoléon. De sombres nuages orageux et des falaises inquiétantes s'élèvent sur la droite, tandis que de sombres vagues déferlent sur la gauche. Et dans le Kent ... « Le jardin de l'Angleterre ».
A view of my favourite fishing boat on Sizewell beach. The Nuclear Power station is just behind the propeller. The blue plastic half pipes go under the boat when it's pushed off the beach into the sea I believe.

Mist and low cloud catching the light of the setting sun gave an almost apocalyptic view of the valley. A lone bird flies into the maelstrom.
