peak (9.1 million litres per second versus 6.5 million. Niagara's annual peak flow is about 2.8 million), though in times of extreme flood the two have recorded very similar maximum water discharge (well in excess of 12 million litres per second. Niagara's all-time peak was about 6.8 million). Surprisingly, Niagara discharges the most water per year as its water flow does not vary greatly. Iguazu and
Victoria fluctuate enormously in their flow rate, and can almost disappear in the dry season. Mist rises between 100 and 500 feet from Iguazu's Garganta del Diablo, and over 1,000 feet above Victoria (sometimes over 2,000 feet).
66:.This image is relatively enyclopedic and relatively aesthetically pleasing (and has a free license, high resolution, accuracy, etc). As for quality. The sharpness of detail is average, the highlights are fairly blown. The crop is a litte off because a majority of the river in the foreground is missing, and the way the river runs off to the far right contrasted with the shadowy area in the far left seem unbalanced. I want to throw this image through photoshop and see if the color balance, shadow/highlights can be adjusted. --

The water falling from Iguazu in peak flow has a surface area of about 1.3 million square feet whilst
Victoria in peak flow has a surface area of over 1.8 million Square Feet (Niagara has a surface area of under 600,000 square feet). Victoria's annual peak flow is also greater than Iguazu's annual
130:. Nice scene but not the best composition by any means. It is cropped too heavily on both the top and bottom, and although I have no idea if the viewpoint was the only choice available, I feel as though there is room for improvement there.

I too was a bit disappointed that the bottom of the image cuts off, but this is a very impressive photo and if there is any foreground, it probably is not in focus since the majority of the rest of the photo is.

Blown out highlights, i.e. loss of detail in water, also composition could be better, not as cut off. --
