E. This photo is very bold and has a lot to show. This photo is interesting because of the lighting of the milky way the tree is like a silhouette but the rock isn't because the light is shining on it.
F. This photo reminds me of the night sky in the country and desert
G. If I was living in this photograph I would feel peace and relaxation because of the sky. You can see every star in the sky and the light of the milky way in the sky which is really fascinating.

A. Cocalzinho de Goiás, Goias, Brazil
B. Victor Lima
C. Brasilia is the federal capital of Brazil and it's globally known for Oscar Niemeyer architecture. Guided by friends from there, I met the Corumbá Jump, which is a few kilometers from the city and it's one of the most impressive waterfalls I have seen. When I reached the spot to take photos, there were many tourists admiring the waterfall. This could be a problem but I decided to include them in the scene to give sense of scale, while I put myself on a high position to catch the whole scenery.

E. What most interests me about this picture is how big the waterfall is and the movement of the water falling down.
F. The water falling is white, the rocks are light and dark brown with moss on them.
G. Compared to the waterfall the people at the bottom look very small and far away.
