Pink sunset

Gorgeous pink sunset at Iguazu Falls
What a gorgeous sunset was it! The sky turned rose, then red and finally pink... like a huge fire was swallowing the horizon... Wau! It lasted only 10 minutes, but every minute was worth much more… These few moments definitely made that day at Iguassu Falls (Iguazu Falls).

Bird paradise: toucans

Toucan is my favourite bird of South America. Aren't they gorgeous?

Adventure boat safari in Iguassu Falls, Brazil

Iguassu Falls boat safari
The image in the previous post was shot from above. This photo is from almost under... under water. They take you on a boat trip right under Iguassu waterfalls. No matter how much plastic you wrap around, you get wet.... really wet... it's a lot of water falling from the sky on your head! Getting a decent picture without a waterproof case is quite a challenge. You definitely will remember this adventure trip on Iguassu (Iguazu, Iguacu) river in the Brazilian part of the Iguassu National Park (Parque Nacional do Iguacu).

Iguassu Falls, Brazil, Argentina

Iguassu Falls, Brazil, Argentina
I had a chance to visit Iguassu Falls last week. These amasing waterfalls are shared by Brazil and Argentina along the Iguassu River (sometimes spelled Iguazu or Iguacu Falls) and surrounded by tropical forests of Iguassu National Park. The system consists of about 270 falls along 2.7 kilometres of the river.

You will see more images of this spectacular place.
