Yes, the falls are nice at Niagara, but there is often so much more going on too! Especially since the sun sets behind the skyline of the Canadian side. This was the nice light that came out for Silke and I the aternoon we were there. Hope you enjoy it!
Have a great Saturday!
Linda

Hi Linda,
Another impressive view on Niagara city. I like the way you composed this image. It could be static with this big BG, but it is not the case. The road leading us towards this remote buildings creates a good perspective. Exceptionnal lighting. Very attractive photo with these golden colors. Bravo! Annie

Great capture of the lovely light Linda. I love the colour and how it reflects on the walk. Just enough snow to make you know it is winter. Super compositional and detail. Well done.
Regards Wanda

You are right, Linda! The light is quite beautiful! It gives everything a golden glow!

I love the b/g of tall, grey impressive buildings rising majestically out of the mist!

Kind regards,
Bev :-)

Hello Linda,

An intriguing atmophere of the cold evening is beautifully composed. Misty atmosphere, warm luminosity and modern building structures on the background are fantastic. An excellent shot my friend, well done.

Great idea Linda - mostly everybody shows just falls, I like this image and I can see you took that close from "Tesla's" monument.
Regards - Tom:)

Lovely golden light Linda, you were blessed that day however briefly. Well composed with fine foreground detail. TFS,
David

Like your capture of the lighting Linda. The sharp focused forground with the lamp post and snow is impressive. Would have like to see the tops of the buildings, just a personal thing.
