The water in this image is aquamarine green blue. This is because, despite water being colorless, large bodies of water like this ocean manifest water's inherent blue tinge from the depth of the water. The ocean here is relatively shallow, so the pale aquamarine color. The hue of the sky also adds to the perceived color of the sea.
People say a picture is worth a thousand words. It refers to the idea that complex ideas can be conveyed more easily through visualization. What do you visualize?

Niagara Mist
The waterfall in this photograph is the world famous Niagara Falls. The Canadian Horseshoe Falls shown here from the Canadian bank drops an average of 188 ft into the Lower Niagara River. It has formed a horseshoe from constant erosion, and shockingly has moved back seven miles in 12, 000 years. It is thought of as the fastest moving falls in the world.
