Smit & Palarczyk > [POLAND. MAZURIA 4753] 'Mazurian idyll.' Andrzej Matyka can pay a tractor. But he loves to harrow the fields with his animals. Of course the foal is allowed to walk with her mother. Time efficiency? «Does she need to drink, we all have a break.» Photo Paul Smit.
Smit & Palarczyk > [POLAND. MAZURIA 4744] 'Mazurian idyll.' Farmer Andrzej Matyka can pay for a tractor. But he just loves to harrow his fields with help of his best friends: his animals. Photo Paul Smit.
Smit & Palarczyk > [POLAND.MAZURIA 4774] 'Meeting with granny.' Meeting people is easy in Poland. And if you do your best to learn a couple of words you can make friends for life. But remind: Poles love to pull your leg. Photo Paul Smit.
Smit & Palarczyk > [POLAND.MAZURIA 4889] 'Russian monastery.' The Philippones formed an 18th century sect within the Russian Orthodox Church and were persecuted. In 1825 Mazuria allowed them to move in. The two last nuns live in this tiny monastery in Wojnowo. Photo Paul Smit.

Smit & Palarczyk > [POLAND.MAZURIA 4848] 'Krutyn landing stage.' Kruytyn, at the end of a gorgeous nature reserve, is a touristic village, not yet busy in May. Picturesque landing stages appear in the landscape, little bridges soar over our heads. Photo Paul Smit.
Smit & Palarczyk > [POLAND.MAZURIA 4840] 'In a nature reserve.' Left and right, trees have fallen into the water and manoeuvring around them is an adventure in itself. Canoeing at its most rewarding: in nature reserve Krutynia between lake Mokre and Krutyn. Photo Paul Smit.
Smit & Palarczyk > [POLAND.MAZURIA 4801] 'Clattering storks.' When the male returns from food search often a moment of courtship starts. The heads are thrown back, the bills clatter. And the Poles nearby are happy. They love storks and prepare their roofs for the nests. Photo Paul Smit.
Smit & Palarczyk > [SWITZER.MITTEL 00883] 'Alpstein range.' Between St. Gallen and Heiden a friendly region of rolling hills is situated. Looking down from there you'll see the Bodensee, looking up the Alpstein range, with Säntis (2503 m) at right. Photo Paul Smit.
