Wonderfull photo Nandana.
We see Luc also very active .. so in my mind we 3 should get some sort
of 'refund' for all the free advertisement we did for the Town of Niagara.
This is a rich and full colred shot.

We can ask ourselves if this is not a little to much * Watlt Disney* .. but at that moment
you ( and we) just 'reported' what we saw.. and that was this lovelu colour-scene!

Welldone and a wink for the nice result *_^

There is an epidemic on TL, Niagara falls. It was spread even in the Netherlands and especially since end of the year, it's crazy, not? (^__°)

It's really a beautifull image with magic colors and a excellent composition.

Hello Vandana

It is much nicer to look at the falls at night as we see only the lighting and the colors.

Nice shot with a nice frame.

La vignette, avec ses toutes petites touches de couleur, donne envie de cliquer pour agrandir l'image.
Bien réussie, cette photo !

I like the colours in this lowlight shot!
And the rich dark brown (near the horizon) in the distance looks really good.
The predominant dark atmosphere (due to night of course) nicely pushes out the colours.

Well done.
Best regards, Daniel
