Description
The mighty Niagara Falls - Canadian Side.
I took this image last year in March on a bitterly cold day. This visit was a dream come true as the Niagara Falls has always been on my "Things to see before I die" list. Shortly before I took this image, at this very spot, I had an almost spiritual experience just standing quietly and taking in the force of this natural wonder.
Thank you for visiting and for any comments.
Hugs, Carin xx

Beautiful capture. Brings back fond memories of many years ago as I stood in a simular spot and the feeling is awsome, the power of nature. The mist makes me feel cold. Thanks for the view.

This is a great shot. This is just one of those things you have to see live to appreciate fully the scale of the photos. Well done.

A place I still have not visited... Oh well, I'm not dead yet, eh? Wonderful composition for this shot, Carin.

Well done, the noise must have been awesome, let alone spiritual! Then again it is a good space to be when the senses are overwhelmed. I like the crop, no need to show the full expanse of the falls. Cheers, Clive.

Nice perspective of the falls. I understand what you mean when you say that you felt you had a spiritual experience near this spectacular wonder. When white man first came to the falls they could hear its sound for several miles downstream. In fact it was probably the loudest sound they had ever heard up to that point in their existence. The word "Niagara" originates from the Iroquois Nation and means: "Thunder of waters". I've been there many times and it's always interesting watching the faces of the people as they approach the falls and shortly there after - Some "get it" right away but many will carry the experience away unwrapped. The fact that you are one of the few who received the gift immediately makes your photo all that more poignant imo. I hope you get to visit there again soon.
