Beautiful photography complimented by the narrative verse. What is the mechanism behind the static electricity at the falls?

@ekrimEE Thanks for the nice comments. Negative ions may be formed in several ways. The oxygen ions are most often produced through disturbance of water molecules, such as fast flowing rivers & even indoor waterfalls. The turbulence of water molecules occasionally displaces an electron from an oxygen molecule, causing it to break away. This spare electron then seeks out another oxygen molecule as a host, giving this molecule an extra electron, and thus a negative charge. Photo is rare capture.

You make a striking profile under the rainbow.

Love the moonlight photos. I wish I could enjoy an Argentinian steak dinner, and relax under the full moonlight in the resort at the falls.
