[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
The Niagara Falls area has seen continuous settlement since the 17th century, first by the Iroquois and then by Europeans who were drawn to the immense falls. Louis Hennepin, a French priest, is regarded as the first European to visit the area in the 1670s.

Tourism started in the early 19th century and has been a vital part of the local economy since that time. As well as the obvious attractions of the falls, Niagara Falls markets itself as a honeymoon destination and is self-proclaimed as the honeymoon capital of the world.

With the creation of a Niagara regional government in 1970, the city amalgamated with the village of Chippawa and surrounding Willoughby, Crowland, and Stamford Townships, creating the present-day municipal boundaries.

Hi,Achim,amazing shot!!!!
warm regards,val

Wikipedia seem to be very popular here to give content to the note. But the question will be more... Is it a natural move of the zoom or a photoshop effect... Wikipedia don't have the answer :)
Just kidding!
But that effect is well realised for the composition of the fall. I presume it's processing cause the detail stay clean... Natural zooming movement would surely much influencing. That's great!

looks pretty scary, has that dare you to jump feel to it
