Photographer's Note
Situated in Iguazú National Park, some 20 km. from Puerto Iguazú in the north of the province of Misiones, Argentina, the Iguazú falls are shared by Brazil and our country.
Iguazú river is born in Paraná state in Brazil, and after crossing 1,200 km. on a plateau where it receives several affluents, it reaches a fault forming a crack in the interleaved layers of sandstone and basalt where the river runs.
This river runs through a smooth geography until it reaches a series of faults, and suddenly an 80 m. canyon in the Devil’s Throat, the main fall of Iguazú, where the water produces a thundering sound and then drains into the Parana river.
