Title:

Toxic Lake

Description

Geamana is a Romanian village flooded in 1978 by communist authorities with copper mine waste. Its colorful waters hide toxic chemicals and cyanide that submerged 300 homes. Only the church spire remains above the sludge as a symbol of disaster. I captured these images in 2025.
