Scars of the Earth (5 photos)
As a child, photographer Stan Gaz often went with his father, a geologist in travel search stones, poissledovat hills and mountains and one day in Arizona, he saw a postcard with a picture of the crater, which is on the territory of Arizona, and was.
Then he decided to definitely go there, to see it firsthand. In 1960, the famous scientist astrophysicist Eugene Shoemaker proved that the crater was formed as a result of a fall to Earth asteroid measuring about 50 meters and it happened in his assessment of 40 thousand years ago.
And Stan looked at this crater began in 2003. The six-year project - putshestvovat the planet and take pictures of the Earth scars inflicted on her by aliens from the distant cosmos.

Stan creates exciting, attracts the attention of the pictures that make the viewer wonder whether he looks to the Earth? In this photo, a photographer with a red filter has a black sky, and the lack of the sky makes the whole landscape of unearthly. But in reality it is 22 kilometer crater `` Gosses Bluff`` in Australia, formed by experts of 140 mld. years ago. Among locals, the aborigines of Australia, the legend goes that the goddess of the sky dropped her baby while dancing, he fell and was left a crater.

Not surprisingly, the proof of extraterrestrial origin of some formations on the face of the planet appears after a long debate, which could last for decades. It happened with the crater in Utah Upheaval Dome, in 2008 alone, scientists, geologists presence of quartz, formed during the strike - stishovite. Stan says that he likes the craters, he feels that there was an epic event, wondering whether there was that of an asteroid?

When a child with his father Stan was wandering over the hills in Southern California, and gathered various kinds of crystals, he treated it as a treasure hunt. The same sense of Stan and now, when he travels and takes material for his book - "point of impact". One such treasure here is a crater in the Canadian tundra, it has an almost perfect circle diameter of 3.3 km from the crystal-clear lake inside. Inuit tribe called him `` Crystal Eye Nunavika``.

Stan makes a special black and white pictures, it gives you a sense of beginning and ending at the same time, a sense of mortality. For crater `` Henbury`` sense of mortality is enhanced by the fact that I mentioned Shoemaker, a legendary hunter for the next blow the asteroid, was killed in a car crash near these places in 1997. These craters in the photo one of the young - they are only five thousand years. 13 craters ranging in size from 10 to 160 meters can hardly be compared with the Giants, but left a long impression on the memory.
