In the Table Rock Scenic Tunnels behind the Horseshoe Falls. It's kind of neat to be behind Niagara Falls, but the view leaves something to be desired.

The tower on the Hard Rock Cafe at Niagara Falls really stands out against the sunset here. And, yes, the sunset really was that orange at the horizon, the way the shot is framed crops the brighter part of the sky above it.

Niagara Falls
Niagara Falls Transit,
Niagara Falls Transit Garage, & Head Office,
This is the last year we will continue to have the name 'Maid of the Mist' for this exciting ride at Niagara Falls, Canada.
The name will be changing next year to the very unexciting 'Hornblower'.
Niagara Falls as seen from the Canadian side. The setting sun graced us with a rainbow display as the light played upon the mist. I have several more which I may post. It is hard to decide on a favorite.

(From Wikipedia): The Horseshoe Falls, also known as the Canadian Falls, is a waterfall on the Niagara River, located mostly on the Canadian side of the border with the United States. It is located between Terrapin Point on Goat Island in New York State, and Table Rock House in Ontario. The name is derived from its curving, horseshoe-shaped crest that is 671 meters (2,200 ft) in width. At the center of the Horseshoe Falls the water is about 3 meters (10 ft) deep. It passes over the crest at a speed of about 32 km/h (20 mph). The falls is 53 meters (173 ft) high, has an average crest elevation of 152 meters (500 ft) and faces northwards. The depth of the river at the base of the falls is actually higher than the falls itself, estimated at 56 metres (184 ft). The Horseshoe Falls is considered to be the most impressive of the three falls that make up Niagara Falls. Approximately 90% of the water of the Niagara River flows over Horseshoe Falls, while the other 10% flows over the American Falls. The falls continually produces a large amount of mist, which renders viewing them difficult. The amount of natural mist has been reduced since the early 20th century by the diversion of most of the water from the Niagara River for hydroelectricity. It is observable at a direct angle from the Canadian side, and at a steep angle on the U.S. side on Goat Island. The Maid of the Mist boat offers tours which approach the base of the falls. The Niagara Scow has rested approximately 700 metres from the edge of the falls since it was caught against a rock shoal in 1918, and a plaque today informs tourists of the history of the small shipwreck that has sat perched just above the falls for nearly a century without being dislodged.
