Vivre de sons, de couleurs. Avoir un royaume dans son regard. Etre ainsi fait que les autres doivent, pour te comprendre, non pas penser, mais songer.

Live sound, color. Having a kingdom in his eyes. Being so that others are, to understand you, not to think, but to think.
Translated from silence

Fish stunned or killed coming over the falls make for rich pickings for the gulls but they have to weather some awfully heavy mist and wind currents.

This needs no introduction - it's the first time I've seen Niagara Falls and it awed me beyond words - it was much better than I expected.
Even though the water levels are very low and the flow has been reduced Niagara Fall remains an awesome sight.

The American side of the Niagara falls is much larger than the Canadian side with an island, two sets of low falls and a large viewing platforms to look at the prettier Horseshoe side.
To Canadians looking across to the American side during the day the sight is less than impressive but at night we shine lights at the US side and illuminate their falls with multi-color spot lights elevating it from the mundane to the sublime with its jagged rocky bottom and mist playing in the lighted night background.
To make this sight even more spectacular for over 25 years running the Canadian side puts on a fireworks display ooting into the expanse of the falls gorge for 110+ days every evening that’s possible starting on Victoria Day weekend.
I took this with my D750 and Nikon 28-300 f/3.5-5.6 Lens at 28mm 13s, f/16 ISO 200 processed in LR, PS +Lumenzia, Topaz Denoise
Disclaimer: My style is a study of romantic realism as well as a work in progress.
The unusually low water conditions allow one to better see the slope of the river bed just above the falls.

Max's Planet in a different day of the week. (Maybe Tuesday).
Thank you for the textures Mister P.S.L.
If I read it fast it is almost L.S.D.
Niagara Falls at daybreak. The skies never quite cleared, but some light managed to escape the clouds and illuminate a segment of the falls.
A surprise birthday holiday for Mrs M. Two days in Toronto then the train to Niagara Falls for one night. Back to Toronto for one night then the flight home. Managed to get to Heathrow before she found out where we were going....
The Skylon Tower stands five hundred and twenty feet high which is a full seven hundred and seventy-five feet above the base of the falls. With the right wind to clear the mist it provides a spectacular view of the falls. However, on this particular morning, mist from the falls driven by a gentle southerly wind, shrouds all but the top of the tower.

You can really catch the beauty of Niagara Falls, its mist, and the Niagara River from this restaurant high atop a tower.
Big Blue - I generally go to the Niagara Butterfly Conservatory each year in December. It always seemed a nice break from the winter weather. However, this year of course that was not possible but I am hoping that later this year it will re-open.
