The Pantanal is the world's largest tropical wetlands area and is located on the border of Paraguay, Bolivia, and Brazil.
While the Brazilian Pantanal receives some visitors, the part of the Pantanal located in Paraguay is one of the few gems left in the world that are rarely ever visited by tourists. When I volunteered at a biological station in the Pantanal, we did a three-day kayak trip up the Rio Negro. On day two we arrived at Fortin Patria which is where I captured this beautiful sunset.

This is an awesome photography dear, i never heard of panatal, but good to know its the world largest wetlands area.. Your post is very informative
Thanks for your comment, hope to see you around more often!
Wow this is stunning, I love the symmetry of the trees either side of the larger one, awesome shot!
Thank you! The nature in the Pantanal is so stunning and in this place the reflections were just amazing.
This is a great photo. The colors and composition are just perfect. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks you and thanks for commenting!
really nice! finally a day of tomorrow to look into Discord.
Happy to have you joining us! :)
Im August werde ich auch ins Pantanal fliegen. Ich hoffe ich bekomme paar Jaguare vor die Linse! :)
Wo geht's denn hin, auf die brasilianische Seite? Falls du nach Paraguay kommst, kann ich dir nur empfehlen zur Station Los Tres Gigantes zu gehen. Einen Jaguar hab ich da zwar nicht live gesehen, aber die Nachtsichtkameras mit Bewegungsmelder rund um die Station haben da einige Jaguarfotos geschossen!
ups.. irgendwie untergegangen... Ich werde nach Porto Jofre in Brazil fliegen. Im August ist Trockenzeit und du kannst mit einer Wahrscheinlichkeit von 99% min. einen Jaguar am Tag sehen. Die kommen zum trinken an den Fluss und dann kann man die vom Boot aus beobachten. Hoffe ich werde nicht entaeuscht! ;)
That’s really magical!
It is! Thanks for your comment :)
I am loving your photos :) Also been to Bolivia, what an amazing country! Got my follow mate!
I agree, Bolivia is an amazing place!
So beautiful but the only thing I can think about ... how many mosquitoes?

Dude, posting the same comment on many photos is not going to help you, it might even lead to you getting flagged or muted.
