Smit & Palarczyk > [POLAND.POMERANIA 4679] 'Gdansk.' Amsterdam in a surrealistic dream - that is the old Gdansk. Shouldn't these houses in Ulica Mariacka be lined along a canal? And shouldn't the stairs be flanked with pillars instead of huge spheres? Photo Paul Smit.
Smit & Palarczyk > [USA.ARIZONA 3868] 'The Wave.' Behind the ravine’s entrance I walk into a giant wave of what seems to be a sticky red fluid with white stripes. Like sour cream stirred into pumpkin soup ('The Wave' in nature reserve Coyote Buttes).
Smit & Palarczyk > [USA.UTAH 7702] 'Our diner table.' The table on which we eat our dry dinner comes straight off a Seventies album cover of the symphonic rock group Yes (camping wild in the Paria Canyon).
Smit & Palarczyk > [USA.ARIZONA 3886] 'Pavement of giants.' We cross a plain two kilometres long, paved with pentagonal orange stones, each a full meter across. We feel like archaeologists in a long-lost world of giants (Coyote Buttes North).
Smit & Palarczyk > [USA.ARIZONA 3887] 'Coyote Buttes North.' I stumble across a herd of ochre-yellow giant turtles. Or are they the roofs of the mud huts of an as of yet undiscovered people? (Overview of Coyote Buttes North).

'Rock and roll.'

Ball of layered sandstone near the Paria Canyon. It may be of micro-organic origin, dating from the Jurassic era.
Smit & Palarczyk > [USA.UTAH 7732] 'Crooked pillars.' Some walls are decorated with complicated patterns of indentations and holes, interspersed with pillars. It looks like crazy sculptors with a strange sense of humour have been at work (Paria Canyon).
Smit & Palarczyk > [USA.UTAH 7741] 'Buckskin Gulch.' In the blue-grey dusk we see the scaly back plates of a Stegosaurus loom (Buckskin Gulch, sculpted by flash floods).
