More than a month after the Great East Japan Earthquake, a shocking photo book showing what happened to the disaster area

A month after the Great East Japan Earthquake that occurred on March 11, the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear accident was initiallyFrom 'accident level 5' to 'level 7' side by side with Chernobyl nuclear accident, The situation is taking on a prolonged appearance.

Even now, locomotives, police, fire fighters and other rescue teams are searching for missing persons and goods are being transported, but such evacuation centers, townscapes in devastated state, people who offer prayers and the state of radiation inspection etc. I gathered the pictures that recorded. It may be a chance to think about East Japan great earthquake once right now.
