It's not actually a nuclear plant, but this cooling tower fooled me for a long time.
This is the Michigan City Generating Station in Michigan City, Indiana. Because of that cooling tower I had always thought this was a nuclear power plant, but when I looked up the plants name before posting this picture I found out it's actual a coal-fired power plant.
Torness Nuclear Power Station on a stormy afternoon.
North Berwick, which is somewhere in this photo, was one of the filming locations for the The Railway Man.
A really rare situation in Vik where only the horizon was clear... the sun was like a nuclear blast... quite extreme dynamic range.

The Dungeness nuclear power stations are a pair of non-operational nuclear power stations located on the Dungeness headland in the south of Kent, England.
Dungeness A is a legacy Magnox power station consisting of two 250 MWe reactors which were connected to the National Grid in 1965 and reached its end of life in 2006.
Dungeness B is an advanced gas-cooled reactor (AGR) power station consisting of two 520 MWe reactors, which began operation in 1983 and 1985. They were the first in a series of AGR reactors to be constructed across the UK. In March 2009, unexpected problems discovered during a maintenance shutdown on unit B21 resulted in the reactor remaining offline for nearly 18 months. In 2015, the plant received upgrades and was given a second ten-year life extension to 2028. In September 2018, as both units were shut down for a scheduled maintenance outage, EDF encountered "significant and ongoing technical challenges" which ultimately led to the announcement of its closure on 7 June 2021.
The first nuclear fusion weapons were large free-fall bombs, dropped by aircraft, but more compact weapons became viable in the mid fifties. This enabled using them in an ever-expanding variety of weapons systems. These are three early examples operated by the US Air Force in the late fifties and sixties, all built to the same scale. From left to right: the MGM-13 Mace cruise missile, the SM-65F Atlas-F ICBM and the CIM-10B Bomarc surface-to-air missile.
Best sunrise I have ever seen in bay area ! Damn doesn't it look nuclear :)
I had no intentions to post this, but after missing todays sunset, thought ill give a try.

This photo shows a nuclear power plant in Germany . It was taken with an Olympus OMD EM 10. The lens is a 45mm Olympus M. 1.8.
At the time, my aim was to get a shot (for work) of the nuclear plant of Cattenom/France from the town of Remerchen in Luxembourg which is only 12 km away. Initially, it was planned to build a plant in Remerchen but this was successfully prevented by environmental activists.
While on site, my boy who starts to enjoy photography, decided to document my work! Since this was a crop field, I told him to only walk the lines, that did not have any plants in order not to damage the farmer's property! I think showing respect for others and their belongings is essential in photography - and life for that matter!

-Pufferquill-
Pufferquill is a very dangerous villian. He used to be a fisherman, but fell out of his boat and got pricked by thousands of Pufferfish. As a result, he turned into a electricity zapping Rogue! He uses TLNM Helmet, Calculator head, legs, and torso, and electricity bolt pieces.
-Space Speedster-
Space Speedster is a Superhero. He grew up on a planet named Mascamorash. A attack from outsiders caused a nuclear explosion, leaving him with powers. He uses a gray beanie, Snowspeeder Pilot head, Retro Space Hero legs and torso, and orange hands and belt.
Please tell me what you think!

I've added the colors from a previous picture called Super Nova to simulate the Radiations !!!
Hope you like it !!!

I've been trying to work out a process for shooting against a brilliant background... just learning in baby steps.
Before 1995 some reactors in mainland Europe dispatched their irradiated nuclear fuel to Sellafield by rail, crossing the channel (and in some cases the North Sea) by rail ferry. After the Channel Tunnel was opened in 1994, rail ferries were no longer viable but nuclear cargo was excluded from the tunnel, leading to all that traffic going by sea to the Port of Barrow-in-Furness.
One of the Ferry-wagons utilised for flask traffic from the continent is seen here marshalled into an ordinary freight in July 1995, 6F47 the 1234 Workington to Warrington, Arpley sidings powered by 47308, passing Seascale Golf course. The wagon is not carrying nuclear material and has just been “cut into” the consist at Sellafield to return it to the continent via rail ferry.
Type: Boiling Water Reactor, 4 Turbines (1 high pressure turbine, 3 coupled low pressure turbines)
Total reactor area: 60 acres
The building complex has over 1,000 rooms that were constructed by up to three meters of steel-enforced concrete).
The same type of nuclear reactors are in operation in Germany (Isar 1 and Philippsburg 1)
Diameter of the reactor core: 6.5 meters; 20 meters high
Cooling pool with 60 tons of heavy surface shell
When operational, the pressure container was to be filled to two thirds capacity with pre-heated water. The Uranium Dioxide fuel rods, enriched by up to 4.02 percent Uranium 235 would have been subject to atomic fusion, creating sufficient heat to boil the water and producing steam, which then would have driven the turbines. After passing through the turbines, the steam (about 7000 tons per hour) would have been returned to a fluid state by the action of the cooling water in the condenser and reintegrated into the cycle. The steam in such a reactor reaches a temperature of 270 degrees Celsius and the pressure would have been 80 Bar in order to operate the four turbines. The reactor was conceived to provide 732 megawatts of electricity – enough for 1.8 million households.

The use of Cinestill DoubleX film can really change the mood of a landscape completely. Here, I took a photo of these barren trees in Winter. The ground was still golden brown without any green. The result looks just like the aftermath of a nuclear blast.
Film: Cinestill BwXX
Camera: Contax IIa
Lens: Voigtlander SC Skopar 35mm F2.5
DRS class 68s, 68016 "Fearless" and 68017 "Hornet", catch a bit of sun as they pass Mostyn at the mouth of the Dee Estuary with the 07.36 Crewe Coal Sidings - Valley Nuclear Electric flasks (6D43).
I was scouting the area for the first time en route to Holyhead and figured this was the best place, given the track alignment, to at least get a bit of side glint from the early morning sun. Sadly got depressed by the vegetation tunnel that seems to envelop this part of the route, but will return to check out some other options over the next few of weeks.
I presume the signal box just about visible is Mostyn. The industrial complex on the left lies within the restricted port area and, just to the left of the signal box, is an area devoted to the North Wales Resignalling Project.
I did take the standard close-in shot as the train approached, but..........

After a long drive up for 37401 I literally only just arrived in time to get this, 37612 & 37610 on the 6K74 0849 Sellafield - Crewe Coal sidings nuclear flask train seen here at Lowca 8/8/15.
MOC WARS! DESTROY! Fellowship Of The Brick!
My attempt at destroying W. Navarre's Nuclear Sunrise, his entry to the Variety Pack category on behalf of his team: Tim and the Imps.
The idea being that the moment of awe and beauty he created is destroyed by the passing of time, leaving behind a dull landscape of fire and death.
