About The Huka Falls are the largest falls on the Waikato River, near Taupo on New Zealand's North Island. At the Huka Falls, the Waikato River which is normally 100m wide is squeezed through a 20 meters wide gorge and over a 20m drop.
Every second up to 250,000 cubic meters of water gushes through the gorge and shoots out over 8 meters’ beyond to create a beautiful blue/green pool.

Sweet Nicki..were are you...But I'm here to look your photo the friendship is other question or is the same...? Or is better...?

But...about the photo (in spanish and english) espectacular visión casi viviente, se puede sentir el agua (feel the water), gran realismo, logrado con un muy buen manejo de la luz que ayudó.

You know how I love you my friend.- Warmest hugs and one kiss.LUIS:)
