Nuclear-powered icebreakers at work


The good people at Dark Roasted Blend have published a wonderful series of photographs by Svetlana Bogdanova of Russian nuclear-powered icebreakers at work. Here are a couple of the images to whet your appetite, reduced in size to fit this blog.

There are many more pictures at the link. They make very interesting viewing.

These are stunning photos. Amazing the differences in North and True North. That rose always made me lose a couple of points in piloting class, until I finally settled down and used my brain. Miss the class, love the photos. Thanks.
