Iguaçu Falls


This photograph was taken by Frans Lanting on April 25, 2010. It is a picture of the Iguaçu Falls, which a wealth of water—up to 1.6 million gallons (6.1 million liters) a second—pours over the Iguaçu Falls on the border of Brazil and Argentina. I like this picture because of it beauty. I also like this photo because the photographer uses the rules of thirds. He places the waterfalls on the left side of the picture and the top of the falls lie on the top third. I also liked how the photographer took a close-up of the falls and has the falls in the background as well.
