Here is a cliff face in Cove Harbour, Scotland, which looks just like the sandstone cliffs in Monument Valley and other places in Navajo country. It must be made of the same sandstone, and weathered in a similar way.
The colors on this block of sandstone are it's own. Photograph is taken with a background of layered sandstone and a seam of coal. The cliff was created when a spillway was cut for a reservoir. Location is at Cagles Mill dam and lake in Putnam and Owen Counties near Cloverdale and Cataract Indiana.

Nevada’s awe-inspiring Valley of Fire State Park is filled with dramatic red sandstone formations formed from shifting sand dunes 150 million years ago and the more recent petroglyphs (rock art) left behind by the Anasazi peoples three millennia ago. This natural wonderland is just 50 miles outside Las Vegas and six miles from Lake Mead.

More pictures of rapids, this time at Sandstone Falls...the river was up a bit, I think, making them a bit bigger.

Rocky shelters, caves, overhangs & sandstone features from my walk above Lake Nerrigorang. This was the the rocky strata below the lookout.
Sandstone Falls is an iconic feature of the New River in Southern West Virginia. This 25 foot waterfall spans a wide section of the River and is part of the New River National River park system.
