Cascade

Finally, England's hot spell has broken, and we have rain.  It seems strange for England to welcome the rain, but ... weird time.

I don't think this image of a recent English mountain stream, because a/ England has no mountains, b/ the image dates to 1984, and c/ AI Suggests 

"The image shows the cascading waters of the Canaima National Park region in Venezuela, featuring powerful tea-colored rapids rushing over dark rock formations with distant tabletop tepui mountains on the horizon.

Location: Canaima National Park, La Gran Sabana, Venezuela.

Key Features: Rushing amber-tinted river waters, layered stone terraces, and distinctive flat-topped tepui mountain formations in the background. "

Cool, Restful End to the Week

 

According to AI ...

This image depicts the Upper Falls of the Yellowstone River located in Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming. The scene shows the river cascading over a rocky cliff face, surrounded by a dense forest of evergreen trees. 

In the background, the Chittenden Memorial Bridge can be seen spanning the river above the falls. This specific vantage point is commonly known as Artist Point

A Crisp Welsh Morning

 

No info on this slide (you're not surprised, are you?) but it wasn't tricky to recognise Pistyll Rhaeadr in Wales.

Nice.

Bonus - The Chief Apologises.

Have you been counting? Have you seen 275 falls yet?

 

From one of the South American Adventures boxes. I believe that these are the Iguazu Falls in Argentina/Brazil.

The blog post title was all that was written on this slide.

Rodrigo's Rushing Rapids

 Just south of my home in Slideville is this.  The locals don't really appreciate it, referring to it as RoRuRa and ignoring it (apart from the annual midnight raft race (death-toll 274 and rising)).

Beauty and The Falls

 

Phyllis (Miss Croydon, 1928) poses in front of an impressive waterfall.

Written on this slide was "Never had I been photographed in such a spectacular setting. Tour group gasped. I used this for my next Christmas Card"

I believe that these are the Iguazu Falls in Argentina/Brazil.

Bonus - A click-bait article headline. ‘Cocaine sharks’ might be feasting on drugs dumped off Florida coast

Misery and the South Sea Waterfall

 

Nothing written on this slides, but ... SPOILER AHEAD...

.... it's from Cypress Garden, Florida.

And someone is disgusted to be here, and being photographed.

Sometimes pictures of this turn up on eBay

Bonus - What Happened to Cypress Gardens ?

A hike to the waterfall

 

That's a nice waterfall / cascade, and I'm sure that someone will be able to identify it. Alas, it's not somewhere I've seen on my travels, so...no suggestions from me.

It's a decent size as well : the full size image shows the people under the waterfall for scale.

Bonus - 

A motto to live by.

Iguazu Falls

 

I usually use this blog to poke fun at the original photographers and subjets, but sometimes... Wow.

WOW!

This is one of the jungle adventure series, and is of Iguazu Falls on the border of  Argentine and Brazil. And... it's rather spectacular. Innit?

Bonus - What could have been. Big Bird on Challenger Shuttle disaster??

Bonus 2 - A 2017 complaint filed by David and Gretchen Jessen against Fresno County and the city of Clovis, California, for damages incurred during a police raid on their home. In June 2016, construction workers called the police after they witnessed a homeless man break into the Jessens’ house. The Jessens returned to find their home ...

The Group By The Water Feature

 

I have reason to believe that this slide was taken in the grounds of Chatsworth House.  Reason - Other slides in the box look like Chatsworth, and I sort of recognise the area.

I have reason to believe that this slide was taken in July 1987.   Reason - It was written on the slide.

I have reason to believe that these people are the Norwich and District Wife-Swapping and Dogging Association.   Reason - Pure supposition.

The Cascade

What a refreshing change.


The waterfall known as "Jacaranda's Tumour" in central Romania.

Maybe.

Whooda Thunkit.

A tedious slide of Niagara Falls.

A Veritable Torrent of ... Water

Seems like a while since the last "Landscape" format slide.

So, where in the world.

The slide says "Bhagdaon Durgar Sq", which would suggest it's what's now Bhaktapur Durbar Square.

However, the torrent in the background is worrying.

Bonus - A few days ago say the death of Peter Vaughn.   Here's a favourite music video that he (and other familiar faces) can be spotted in.

Summer Steam Fayre

Strangely, I don't associate Americans with Steam Traction Engines, or the ongoing enthusiasm for them, but I guess that this slide proves that there are some outposts of the colonies where nostalgia reigns.

Bonus - Bed in Breakfast

Cascade !

Does what it says in the title.
(Sorry. Problems at work, so can't be arsed to say much.)

Bonus -

Cool and Refreshing

Aren't Streams Great?

Without them, we'd end up with all the water collecting on the top of mountains, and the oceans would be a lot lower.

Plus, we wouldn't have refreshing streams to jump into. Obviously.

That Looks Familiar...

He

Heavens Above ! This slide ( -> ) starts a outbreak of Deja Vu. No details on slide (natch) but I've got a feeling I've been there before. Looks like Gullfoss in Iceland, and I'd thoroughly recommend that people visit it once (or more) in their lives. I don't have a shot in exactly the same location, but this is a close by shot.

Bonus :
