A tight portrait of a Chernobyl liquidator's gas mask, capturing the intricate, weathered details of its Soviet-era design. The mask features domed lenses, robust rubber seals, and reinforced straps, all bearing the scars of the reactor's fallout. Layers of ash and grime cling to its surface, telling a story of resilience and history, while subtle flecks of rust suggest age and exposure. The distressed material of the mask, contrasted with the reflective gleam of the lenses, adds a compelling depth to this snapshot of a bygone era.
