Bossetti Photo | TrekEarth

Photographer’s Note

One of the most beautiful water falls of the Iguassu Falls. Although this one is not the highest or the noisiest, it is also famous ——at least famous for those who have visited them: the Salto Bossetti. Specificaly, in this picture, it is the one located highest and to the right. An observation deck can be seen, with two people and the banister rails, a little under the top and to the right.
At the observation deck, the water aerosol and the wind generated by the falling water are an interesting experience. People even aproach as much as they can to get wet, because the deck is very close to the falls, and because its always almost hot at the Iguassu Falls ——and very humid.

You have captured the power of the water very well, Jurgen. This is a difficult shooting situation, with the white water and the dark surroundings. The surroundings do black out. If you have Photoshop, try reducing the black in the greens under Selective Colour. My workshops are used up for today. Maybe I'll give it a try tomorrow.

Hi Jurgen very nice picture of these waterfalls, the white water is great and the colours are nice. I agree about the dark foreground, but overaal very nice.

great shot here, I like the three waterfalls here, the sky is rich blue and also the water vapours seen here is wonderful, very well captured too, the height shown here is great and the trees really make this shot come alive

Well done

I'd reduce contrast in the upper 2/3 of the image, & add some blue & cyan (5%).

I tried a ws & will post tomorrow.
