SUMMARY
Since 2018, Polish photographer Kamil Budzynski has been documenting the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone by leaving homemade pinhole cameras in various locations. These cameras are placed in abandoned buildings, trees, and other spots for extended periods, sometimes months. The resulting images, known as solargraphs, are described as strange and unique, capturing the passage of time and the atmosphere of the zone.
