NORTHERN FRANCE: A chapel in the underground battlefield hospital. Remains of wooden stretchers, lamps, mortars, shoes and small bottles are left. A REAL-LIFE INDIANA JONES has discovered toxic underground tunnels littered with explosives to photograph the stunning art of World War One military shelters including those by British forces. Pictures reveal stone carvings created as homages to the brave dead and their regiments lining the concealed passageways. Other images show a chapel of worship, an underground home and a battlefield hospital as well as an abandoned Citroen car, scattered bullets and grenades lying on the contaminated ground. French photographer Mark Askat (30) spent over two years researching and capturing incredible images of one hundred military digs carved out of the underground by the creative soldiers of Britain and all sides fighting in northern France.
