Google Earth uncovers globe’s hidden marvels

From a blood-red lake in Iraq to a ghostly face in giant rock formations in Canada. A Stratocam web project showcases stunning satellite photos from around the globe, capturing the weirdest and most wonderful of our planet.

The brainchild of former Google and Dreamworks employee Paul Rademacher, Stratocam allows visitors to vote for their favorite photographs and take their own aerial snaps with the help of Google Earth.
