Waterfalls

 Today's Sunday Stamps theme is waterfalls and rivers.

I think this extreme sport counts. This is Descenso de Barrancos, issued by Correos in 2006, and sent by Eva. Whatever this is (waterfall, river, rapids?), it looks horrendous :)

This stamp is Harrison Wright Falls in Pennsylvania. I'll take fast running water as a spectator sport, please.

It arrived on this lovely February exchange envelope from Maggie M.

  1. I have now published the correct post - thank you!
    I am with you as for the spectator sport, and I do enjoy to spectate running water. The Harrison Wright - what a name ;) Falls look mesmerizing.

  2. I hadn't thought of that stamp for today. It belongs to a series of stamps about a TV program: "Al filo de lo imposible" (='On the edge of the impossible'). I think the picture on the stamp was taken on Reunion Island. Impossible for me, indeed!

    1. Oh, and we have coincided in the other series, but not the same stamps! :)

    1. The waterfall set is very nice, and the stamps are quite large which is nice

  5. Yes, nice to look at, not to... whatever they are doing. Rock climbing in a waterfall? Oh, I found an explanation! "Canyoning." Caving and climbing combined to areas formerly untouched by humans. Maybe we should let some places remain untouched.

  6. Waterfalls on envelopes and running down streets. I hope you're not in the flood zone.

    1. No, not at risk of flooding, just a bit wet in the infinished basement which is normal after four straight days of rain
