Solipsism Gradient

Shot from the same place as the preceding photo, I just turned to the left.

You can see the wooden bridge in the background.

This type of fungus is popularly called “Devil’s Ear” and grows on tree stumps.

Notice a much smaller, less colorful specimen at the lower left of the photo…

Ducks swimming in the creek about 100m before the waterfall. Again, notice the iron-rich water.

This wooden cross is in front of a church in the town of São Gonçalo do Rio das Pedras. The parallel antenna tower in the background caught my eye…

A typical clump of cacti and other plants adapted to dry climates…

Small yellow mushrooms grow from a clump of burned vegetation.

Although it rained frequently during our stay, this region is known for long dry periods and brushfires are very common.

This small bridge crosses a small creek just before a double waterfall. The water has high iron content and has a dark reddish tint.

The whole region is infested with termites, so wooden structures are shortlived; this bridge has been rebuilt a few years ago.
