Petrified Waterfalls

[athriax]

Hi guys, I want to share with you a nice trip I had to Oaxaca, Mexico.
During this trip I visited an amazing place called "Hierve el Agua" (Boiling Water) that is full with water pools that despite the name are filled with cool water and some petrified waterfalls



Here comes the waterfall



Another pool, I liked the tree at the end of it



Finally back to the city of Oaxaca I took this night picture of a church



I hope you enjoyed the pictures

Lovely set, how on earth does that tree hang on in there?

I like the clouds in the first shot and the patterns in the water are cool. The waterfall is amazing how it stands out from the surrounding landscape. Great perspective of the pool and tree and I really like the night shot. Well done on these great shots.

Thanks, the water moved to a different path down the mountain, the the tree used a part with no mineral deposits on the ground to grow, sadly the tree didn't looked pretty much alive

Hi, here you can find a few more pictures of that place, hope you like them!



This is why the place is called "Boiling Water" even with cool water



Finally a side view of one of the pools, here you can see the mineral deposits on the ground
