Gullfoss - the golden falls

Gullfoss is actually two separate waterfalls, the upper one has a drop of 11 metres and the lower one 21 metres. The rock of the river bed was formed during an interglacial period.

Water flows over Gullfoss at an average rate of 109 cubic metres per second. The heaviest floods have recorded a flow of 2000 cubic metres per second. During the summer the flow is 130 cubic metres per second, which would take only 3 seconds to fill this building. People were eager to exploit the power potential of Gullfoss and many plans for hydroelectric developments on the river Hvitá have been proposed.

We can say it's a major turn! WOah! It's the way the angle is present i enjoy.. We see by the trail the change of water sense even if we dont see the water!
Majestic! green space!

bonjour Stephan
j'aime la prise de vue de l'image ; ça laisse imaginer à la fois la chute d'eau et le lit du fleuve.
Amitiés

Stunning shot Stev! Beautiful capture of colour and scale, well composed - perfect placement of horizon and the diagonal elements through the frame.
