I just looked at some pictures there again, and was suprised, that the same objects (kids' beds, gas masks in the kindergarden/day care, fair-wheel, etc.) and parts of the area (although not the same photos) appear on that website (photos and the movie) and the other two websites posted in this thread in the beginning.
I don't know what to make out of it. Also, the website in question doesn't make any claims that all photos used on it are shot by the author (I think on opposite, - some - e.g. the photos from the reactor, - were made via some type of a remotely operated robot). Did I miss something?
