river mouth by fredmatos

I have two hobbies that are inextricably linked: travel and photography. This photo is of my latest trip. The boat is coming at the mouth of the São Francisco River, on the border between the states of Alagoas and Sergipe in northeastern Brazil. It is a simple tropical landscape, but a beauty that moves me.
I hope you like it.

The canoe is a means of transport still widely used by coastal communities of the San Francisco River. In this picture we see two ladies returning to their homes after shopping in the city of Penedo.

The São Francisco River is one of the most important waterways of Brazil. The spring is in the Serra da Canastra, in the state of Minas Gerais. Its route crosses the state of Bahia, its motto north to Pernambuco, as well as constituting the natural border between the states of Sergipe and Alagoas and finally empties into the Atlantic Ocean after traveling 2814 kilometers from the source to the mouth. His Indian name is Opará or Pirapitinga and is also fondly called Old Chico.

Has two navigable spurts: the average, about 1371 km in length, between Pirapora (MG) and Juazeiro (BA) / Petrolina (PE) and low, with 208 km between Piranhas (AL) and the mouth in the Ocean Atlantic.

The São Francisco river runs through regions with natural conditions of the most diverse and has six hydroelectric plants.
