Custer State Park, South Dakota, 1995
Photograph by Daniel R. Westergren
Ancient granite outcrops reflect in the still water of Sylvan Lake in South Dakota抯 Custer State Park as a lone fisherman awaits a nibble. Geologists calculate that the park抯 granite, into which the sculptures at nearby Mount Rushmore were carved, are about 1.7 billion years old, making it some of the oldest rock in North America.

1995年Daniel R. Westergren摄于 南达科他州 考斯德(Custer)州立公园
南达科他州 考斯德(Custer)州立公园 森林之湖(Sylvan Lake),岸边露头的古老花岗岩,反射在静止的水面上,一如垂钓孤翁等鱼咬饵般.地质学家估计该公园的花岗岩,还有罗斯莫尔(Mount Rushmore)山附近那些雕刻好的花岗岩,都有17亿岁了.可说是北美最古老的岩石了.

Photograph by James P. Blair
Surrounded by the majestic Himalaya, Sherpas walk along a stone wall in the verdant hillside village of Namche Bazar, Nepal, a last stop on the way to Mount Everest.

Surf froths around the wind-and-water-eroded coastal tunnels in southwestern Australia’s Port Campbell National Park. Retreating tides have left jagged limestone formations around the park’s coastline, giving the area its historical notoriety as a ships’ graveyard.

Arkansas, United States, 1994
Photograph by Ian C. Martin
Sunlight glints off a tranquil lake in central Arkansas. The site is near historic Arkansas Route 7, which goes through Hot Springs, boyhood home of former U.S. President Bill Clinton, and continues deep into the Ozark National Forest, where signs warn that the road is “crooked and steep,” and weary drivers can stop at a hillbilly trading post called “Booger Hollow.”

伊安 C 马丁1994年摄于美国阿肯色州

阳光反射在阿肯色州中部平静的湖面上。这里靠近州阿肯色州7号历史公路。这条公路经过美国前总统比尔-克林顿孩童时代生活过的温泉城，继而通往奥扎克国家森林公园，那里的道路有“弯曲陡峭”的行车警示标志，疲倦的司机可以在一个叫“鬼怪空穴”的乡下人交易点停车休息。

Pinnacle Rock, Bartolome Island, Ecuador, 1986
Photograph by Sam Abell
Pinnacle Rock looms under a brooding sky off the Galápagos’ Bartolome Island. The island’s most famous feature (it even got airtime in the movie, Master and Commander ) is actually an eroded lava formation called a tuff cone. When hot lava from a now-extinct volcano on land reached the sea, the temperature difference caused explosions, producing thousands of thin layers of basalt ash that eventually formed into this towering monument.

山姆 阿贝尔1986年摄于厄瓜多尔巴特罗梅岛顶峰岩

加拉帕戈斯群岛中，巴特罗梅岛上的顶峰岩在阴沉的天色下隐约可见，这是岛上最著名的景点(甚至在电影《船长和指挥官》镜头中出现过 )。其实这是一种凝灰岩锥，是熔岩受到侵蚀形成的，当炽热的熔岩从陆地上现在已熄灭的火山流出流到海中，温差引起爆炸所产生的层层玄武岩灰最终形成这个自然奇观。
