Victoria Falls - a photo on Flickriver

Victoria Falls

Victoria Falls is the location where the mighty Zambezi river makes a huge drop before continuing down a canyon. This is part of the long line of the waterfall. The part closest to the left is the highest point reaching a bit higher than 100 meters. Since the waterfall is so huge however it is a it tricky to see the vertical scale here since it is so long.

One of the trickiest things about taking photos at Victoria Falls is that there is often so much water-mist in the air that you, and your camera, will get soaked. You can see a little bit of that mist here where it is also creating one of the rainbows which you can usually see if the sun is shining.

You could watch this Large On Black since that brings out more details. My pictures aren't balanced for a white background.
