WOW! What an impressive and powerful picture, Marilyn, especially when enlarged! It must be an unforgettable sight and I can almost hear the sound of the water! Greetings, Anne

This is quite amazing, Marilyn. It looks more like some addled artist's impression of what a multi-leveled, crazy water scene might look like, but it's all real. What's the story behind this overlook?

Very impressive! More impressive than Niagara's falls? Cheers, Christian

What an amazing view and great photo, Marilyn! I enjoyed your various scenes from Brazil and Argentine very much. My godfather has emigrated to Misiones, near the Iguazu falls in Argentine, when I was three years old. He and his wife have died long ago, so I have never seen him again and I have never been in South America.

Best wishes, May

Great picture Marilyn very wild water. The complete picture is getting hazy by the fine water parts.

Looks like a wonderful place to visit.

Cheers, Erik

Hi Marilyn very impressive photo of this waterfall I'd love to hear the roar of the water and bring it all sounds is super invite you to visit my gallery Greetings Andrew Polonia

Anne, Margot, n1w, Christian, Mahdi, Hank, Flavio, May, and Eric, I'm sorry I overlooked your fine comments. It took Andrew's comment today to wake me up! Thank you.

I'm sorry I couldn't send the roar of the water along with the photo: this is an incredible place! Even with a good-sized, waterproof poncho, I got wet going out on the walkway which is very sturdy but still not for the timid. You are so close to all that rushing, plunging water! (Fortunately I had a "raincoat" for my camera.)

Returning to this reminds me that I hadn't mapped it, partly because my best map of the Falls area is almost but not quite upside-down from the conventional orientation, so it's confusing. But I've done it now.

Thanks again. Marilyn

This is an amazing waterfall Marilyn, you did well to show it so well considering the dull looking day. Nice shot!!

Best wishes, John
