I'm not sure that this is a waterfall in Norway but it certainly looks like one.

I was working in Stavanger at the time it was issued a came from a scenery series, this one depicting fauna, mammals and horses.
A ship's wheel and a power transmission tower (pylon) appeared on this Arkansas River Navigation stamp from the USA.

Somehow I think you might need a map or sat-nav to find your way from Minnesota to Louisiana along the Great River Road through 10 States to follow the course of the Mississippi.

The Peace issue from New Zealand in 1946 include a stamp showing Lake Matheson.

The lake formed in a hollow left by the Fox Glacier. Although it is not clear in the stamp, the Clearwater River drains out of the lake.

A very scenic Norwegian stamp. The Great River road would make a fantastic trip.
The perspective of the Arkansas River stamp is interesting. And a cruise down the Mississippi would be enjoyable (in another time, of course). A magnificent waterfall was my first thought on the Norwegian stamp. And, finally, an almost impossible view of peace and perfection from NZ!
The Mississippi stamp design is very original. I love also the colours of those vintage stamps like that lake in New Zealand.
