Calm Before the Storm  by alophoto

Calm Before the Storm

They have no idea the wild ride they are in for soon. And neither do we, really.

Hope that you have a peaceful, fun, photo and memory filled weekend. And may our storms be less intense than the one they are in for, and if not, may we be prepared to batten down the hatches and move through them.
wow! brilliant image and great words - have a lovely weekend!

I did love the "maid of the mist" boat trip. You have captured the powerful water so well! Sounds like you have a storm heading your way... hope you all stay safe.

Fav. Awesome mist and incredibly beautiful capture of the falls. Is that the Horseshoe falls?
July 11th, 2014  
@cimes1 You know, I don't know the names of any of them. I head someone say American Falls. This was the main one and then looking down is the other. Is that American? Where is Horseshoe? Who knows? Thank you. It was amazing.

@taffy Trying for something different here. Thanks so much for the fav!

Fabulous shot. Love Niagara Falls.

@amandal This looks like the spot where I took the rainbow one last June. They are such spectacular falls. And looking down on them is dizzyingly great! That's what I feel you captured here.
July 11th, 2014  
@taffy Yep, this was the rainbow spot...and I should have changed my lens to capture it better like you did. Just got pieces and parts of it, not the whole scene. I changed out when I moved to the other overlook.

Incredible!Love the mist and scale here!Fav!
I think I have an image taken from that same spot,similar composition..,but it was 5 years ago and before learning so much from 365...This makes me dream revisiting!

okay, the american falls is the 'smaller, straight one. the horseshoe falls is the canadian falls, the bigger one with mists rising above it.

Stunning scene,a super capture:-) FAV!!

@summerfield I had no idea you were so close. Dang it. This time would not have worked out. We were there for an hour tops. Just walked up shot a few photos and peddled out. My littlest came down with a tummy bug that morning or we would have taken at least a little bit more time. Had hoped to take the Maid of the Mist out. We plan to go back...we have some friends to visit in Buffalo, NY. When we go, I'll be sure to let you know. A meet up would be so fun. Maybe you can go with Mira and Edie, too, and we can all meet. Have you met Edie yet? Is she in town now?
July 11th, 2014
