Reversing Falls,Saint John.

During a recent Evening walk .......

Large size is quite interesting to view .....

 

The tide rises and falls once about every 12 and a half hours. To best appreciate the Reversing Falls, one should try to view them at least twice on a given day - near low tide and near high tide. A good water level vantage point from which to view the Falls is Fallsview Park, The phenomenon of the Reversing Falls is caused by the tremendous rise and fall of the tides of the Bay of Fundy, which are the highest in the world.

 

Ernest Becker:

When we understand that man is the only animal who must create meaning, who must open a wedge into neutral nature, we already understand the essence of love. Love is the problem of an animal who must find life, create a dialogue with nature in order to experience his own being.
