Let me tell
you about
my recent trip to Angel Falls in Venezuela.
Since mountain waterfalls like Angel Falls are fed by rainfall
, I had to do my homework on the unpredictable
weather of Venezuela in order to determine the time of my visit. In the dry season, Angel Falle can be just
a trickle of water.
Since I wasn't a regular tourist'
, I needed a helicopter that could fly me exclusively to the top of the Tepui
Mountain--the flat table-top' mountain from which Angel Falls originates. In order to get an uninterrupted
view of the landscape, we had the helicopter door removed. Once we arrived at Angel Falls, we visited
the base of the mountain, and found ourselves standing in the midst of a ground-level cloud of fog; Angel
Falls is so high that by time the water runs off the rock at the top, it dissipates into fog when it reaches
the bottom
We decided to fly to the top of the waterfall to get the shots we wanted. Though the weather had seemned
clear, it was heavily overcast at the top of the mountain and we had to call it a day.
We returned to the top of Angel Falls on the second day and waited for the engulfing fog to lift-a gamble
of time and effort because there are possibilities of the fog remaining for an entire day
. Thankfully, luck
was on our side, the fog lifted and I managed to take some breathtaking photos of the world's tallest
waterfall
So the next time you see a beautiful photo of a natural landscape, bear in mind that the
photographer would have gone to unimaginable lengths to deliver that moment in time to you!"

Answer:
Angel Falls is the world’s highest uninterrupted waterfall. Located in Canaima National Park, the second largest national park in Venezuela, the waterfall tumbles from a cleft near the summit of table top mountain Auyán-tepu into what is known as Devil’s Canyon, 3212 feet (979m) below. The falls are a tributary of the Carrao River, itself part of Venezuela’s Orinoco River system. Considered among the world’s most dazzling natural wonders, Angel Falls are a truly unforgettable spectacle.
