Falls in the Fall

A crystal clear moonlit night of early autumn over Margoon Waterfall in the Fars province of Iran. Constellation Taurus with the Pleiades Star Cluster (the Seven Sisters) appears in the sky. Margoon in Persian means “snake like”. The 70-meter high falls are located at altitude of 2,200 meters in the Zagros Mountains.
