Original - Meteor Crater, USA
Reason
I don't usually renominate images if they fail, but I guess I blame myself for suggesting it with too many other choices, so this time it's all about this one since it got the most positive feedback in the last nomination but still fell through. I think this is a very good and high EV image of what might be the best preserved, something like 50,000 years old, meteorite strike on Earth - and over a mile (or kilometre) across, pretty huge, too. I just think that if this doesn't get promoted it at least deserves some outright opposes, if there are any reasons to that is.
