Iguassu
On my way to Antarctica and the Falklands I made a little detour for the Iguasu Falls. Lots of monkeys, coati and some of the most beautiful falls I have seen.

In the photo: Mbigua, Adan y Eva & San Martin falls. In the background you can see the cloud of spray from the Garganta del Diablo. Dusk.

Beautiful scenery, Enrique. The water looks to have a very heavy mud content at this point of the falls. Amazing at how much earth must get moved around with a water force this powerful. :eek:

The color of the water is very unique. Must be a lot of sediment in there? Water ever it is the reddish color works really well with the green of the foliage. Nice work!
