If you look at a book on interpreting aerial photos you will
find that the picture should be oriented so that the shadows fall
toward you, even if the photo is reversed. If the shadows fall
away from you the depth will be reversed. This is the effect you
are referring to below.
When I saw the other photos of the waterfall in Carlos' bunch
it became obvious the picture was upside down. If I had a way of
inverting the picture on my computer I would have tried it.

If you look at a photo of craters on the moon upside down, they look like mountains. It's the direction of light/shadows and what the brain expects to see.
When I turned my computer upside down, I noticed that Carlos' copyright was the wrong way up. I went and had another glass of wine and found if I turned my computer on its side and lay on the floor, it all seemed to make more sense. 😂
I like the photo Carlos, the lighting is good, it picks out the fine detail. I admit, when I first saw it, I thought it was a tree trunk, and because you said the lighting was strange, I didn't really question my first impression.

Jan et al:
I needed to rebuild the roll original position in the camera to know the true, I had scanned it within a series two months ago and I never touched it up to yesterday and I handled it as I found it, I was convinced it was in the right position, but I was wrong, Jan is right, it was upside down, you can see the proof here, taking as reference the frame number 7 with my children in the camera original position and you compare it with the three frames about the same subject including the image at Flickr:

I corrected the image position at Flickr

Thank you very much Jan! and thanks for the other opinions too.

PS: You can see in the roll it was one of the last pictures I took that day, I was in a hurry to avoid the night during the travel and I did not recall details.

Hi Carlos,
Sorry, but I still think its upside-down. Turn is on its
head and it makes a lot more sense with the splash-pool at
the bottom and the water rolling over the edge ar the top.
What do the others think?
Happy Easter,
Jan

Hello Jan:
It was the reason I wrote it is a somewhat strange
backlit. The picture is in the right position, the upper
part is water falling and the sun is reflected on the
point where the water starts to fall; if you look it
quickly, it even could look like the water and the sun
reflected on the water are the sky.

Carlos,
Did you upload the picture upside-down? Looks weird…
Cheers from sunny Germnay,
