The American Falls at Niagara. The Canadian horseshoe falls are more popular but I was attracted by the red of the flowers against the white foam of the American Falls. After posting it I noticed a lady wearing a red blouse on the left. I didnt see her because she blended in with the flowers ;-)
Thanks for vieiwng

Very interesting perspective David. Not many would think to shoot the falls through the beautiful Canna lilies. You're right .. they stand out really great with the backdrop of the white falls. Good on you for seeing this.
Have a nice weekend

Hi David,

This works very well, I like the creativity. The flowers make a nice foreground and the falls present a different, yet equally beautiful aspect of nature. Very nice, and I like that you opted for greater DOF.

Best regards,
Werner

HI David
The low angle paid off making these flowere really stand out.
Great dof.
If you had not mentioned the lady I don't think anyone would have noticed, she blends in well with the rest.
