The only flame waterfall in the world has attracted countless photographers. Why can I only watch it once a year?

Everyone knows about waterfalls. After all, Li Bai's immortal stayed? Is it suspected that the Milky Way will fall for nine days after flying to thousands of feet? Ancient famous sentences. Waterfalls are a spectacular natural landscape, with beautiful scenery and worth watching, so many waterfalls have been developed into tourist attractions. There are many waterfalls in the world, and the most magical one is Flame Waterfall. The so-called flame, in fact, is that the color of the waterfall is flame color, which is very magical.

There are many waterfalls in China, such as Huangguoshu Waterfall, Detian Waterfall and Hukou Waterfall. Although there are many waterfalls in China, they are all white, muddy yellow or other colors. But there is no such thing as flame color. This Flame Waterfall is a Mawei Waterfall in Yosemite National Park, California, USA. This waterfall is ordinary, not spectacular, and not very attractive. But its magic lies in that it will turn into a flame color at some characteristic moments, giving off golden light, which is very spectacular and amazing.

Naturally, the conditions for the formation of such a spectacle will not be so simple. In fact, this is a magical light magic. When certain conditions are met, the sun shines light on the waterfall in a suitable place, and the light undergoes physical changes such as refraction in the waterfall, and the waterfall is dyed into flame color. But this condition is very harsh. If the sun deviates a little from the angle and height, it will lead to the failure of this magic.

In addition to the requirements for light, this Mawei waterfall is a seasonal waterfall. The water in Mawei Falls comes from the melting of ice and snow on the Emirates Rock. Mawei Waterfall only has water in early spring and winter.

Therefore, the time period with the above two conditions is the evening of February every year, and it needs to be a sunny evening. Therefore, in a specific period of time, it will appear at most once a day, and it may not necessarily appear. Sometimes when you are unlucky, you may not appear several times in February. Because of this spectacle, many photographers come here to take pictures every year, and they often have to wait a long time to take pictures.
