[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Well, this is one of the many photos I took from the majestic Foz do Iguaçu waterfalls (Iguaçu means Great Waters in Tupi-Guarani). I visited the falls in April and the water level was not the highest, but still it was unbelievable.

275 falls occupy an area more than 3km wide and 80 m high - which makes them wider than Victoria and higher than Niagara. They must be seen with your own eyes - no photo will do justice to them. It's a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1986.

I agree with you. This is probably one of the most beautiful places on earth. I want to see it again!

Very nice crisp clean photo of a beautiful location. Thanks.

Nice composition

Nice composition....and the colors are good too...but the botom right of the photo seems to ahve been in the shade...also, sharpness could ahve been better i think....also wondering if including something which was near by would ahve added more depth top the photograph...something like a branch of a tree if possible....
