Door to Hell

Darvaz in Uzbekistan is often referred as “The Door to Hell” or “Fire Hole”. The story of this place dates back 35 years ago when geological experts were drilling for natural gas. The geologists unexpectedly found out a big underground cave and could not dare to get deep under the ground because the cavern was filled with gas. Then, they decided to light a fire to prevent the spread of poison gas. The fire surprisingly still burns already for 35 years without any pause and be visible every sunset.

Serra da Leba, Angola

Serra da Leba is the landmark of Angola for many decades. However, evening shot of Huila’s Serra da Leba road is impossible because of the frog at an altitude of 1,800 meters. It takes a car a few minutes to go up and down the road for this awesome shot. When two cars travel in a different direction, the problem is addressed.

“X-ray style” Photos of Sea Creatures at Night

Publisher: Eric Giguere

Joshua Lambus, the young underwater photographer from Houston, Texas and living in Hawaii, has amazingly taken the pictures of marine creatures under 7,000 ft deep into the sea. Interestingly, these incredible set of photographs are captured off the coast of Hawaii in the darkness of night. Despite this fact, these sea's inhabitants show fully the wonderful display of colors thanks to a special flash. The 25-year-old fine art photographer got the unique idea when he received so many requests from visitors who want to see turtles, dolphins and whales. Joshua Lambus often drives the boat off the coast of Honokohau Harbour at around 10pm, kills the engine, dives into the sea and spots things drifting in front of his camera. Joshua Lambus once said, “My photos are to show people things they haven't seen before... or maybe things they see all the time... in a way they've never cared to look”
