View of Iguazu Falls from the (beat up) Sheraton Hotel. "176 guestrooms" ...and... facilities to "welcome up to 800 people". Ummm, that's 4.5 people per room.

At Iguazu Falls.

On the walkway to the falls, at the falls. I tried three compositions here: one with the water in focus; one with the grate in focus (this one); and one with everything in focus. In the first, the grate was a huge distraction, because the small holes didn't let enough of the water through. The third was, well, boring. The second one, I claim, captures what we saw. Sure, we ignored the grate, but were ever conscious of it...or ever conscious of what would happen if it wasn't there.

Yeah, this sign is needed.

Nothing very interesting to place in the foreground, just some weeds. Sigh.

Lots of water falling over a cliff.

A minor fall.

The viewing platform at Iguazu Falls is right on the falls.

On the walkway, just before arriving (here, just after leaving) the falls. It looks so calm and peaceful here.

The Iguazu Falls walkway. The new walkway on the right (with people on it), and the old walkway on the left. The old one was destroyed by a flood in....the past.

Panoramic of Iguazu Falls from the walkway to the falls. It looked a lot like a gigantic calm lake, with steam coming from it.

The old Iguazu Falls walkway. The creaky wooden railing just scares me.

Plant...grasses...in the Iguazu Falls lake.

Lots of butterflies at Iguazu Cataratas, Argentina. One was hanging out on the prop lf TBM N850SJ (easily recognizable by the dental work). I then hung around for a couple minutes waiting for her to open her wings. She didn't dissappoint!

N850SJ from the front. Wow, even has teeth on the bottom!

Pilots, examining the stamps on their flight plans. Or, talking about weather, or routing or approach plates.

Ma foreshadows nicely. What the $%^&#! am I doing here?
