    Cachoeira da Fumaça e Cachoeira do Soninho (Jalapão State Park)

    Getting out of the darkness (I mean cave shots), let's move into something more happy and colorful.

    After Terra Ronca State Park, we drove further 600km north to reach the state park of Jalapão, in the state of Tocantins (North region of Brazil). Jalapão was the location of CBS 18th season of the reality show "Survivor". The place is quite remote. There are many attractions within the park area, but they are spread out into a very large area and only accesible with a 4x4 vehicle. During a week in the park, we drove some hundreds of km in non asphalted routes (real off road experience), varying from mud to sand and including some small river crossing. Eventually we reached all the points we planned to do and we had a terrific time there. The weather, as expected for this time of the year, was great. So, here are some first images from Jalapão. There are more to come. C&C welcomed. Thanks for viewing. Regards,

    Really a nice set of images, Otavio. You picked some great positions to shoot from. Looks like a location that could keep a photographer busy for quite some time. Nicely done.

    I agree with Dan and Richard. What a beautiful place! Lots of photo opportunity. I particularly like #1 and#6. #1 because of the clouds. The place is simply breathtaking.

    Excellent set of images Otavio... I especially liked #3 because of the perspective and the way it's framed.

    Lovely set, Otavio. The 3rd is a great perspective on the waterfall.

    Very nice series Otavio. Photographs of waterfalls like these are at their best when they capture the power of the Force (Force is also a name for a waterfall in parts of the UK). 2, 3 and 4 in particular do this beautifully. Nicely chosen viewpoints as well.

    Hi, Greg. Thanks for your feedback. Looks like Number 3 was the preferred one by many colleagues here. Cheers,
