Here are some more photos from my travels last summer. We briefly visited Niagara Falls and I’m glad we did. It was stunning! In the morning, the light shone through the mist below American Falls and formed a rainbow. I captured this photo of the Maid of the Mist sightseeing boat traveling underneath. I think it’s quite lovely. The skyline of the City of Niagara Falls in Ontario, Canada, is in the background, and Horseshoe Falls is way in the back, behind American Falls.

I also captured some of the falls at night. Here’s one image of the falls lit up with colored lights:

If you stick around late enough, you can see fireworks!

I’ve heard from many that the views of the falls are better from the Canadian side, but after seeing my photos, I hope you can agree that the view from the U.S. side is fantastic too!
