Squared – SQ07

Another in the Squared series. A small section of the Niagara River just prior to the American Falls. The best view of the falls is from the Canadian side of the river. The traffic was more than I cared to wait through and I had never explored Goat Island which is home to Niagara Falls State Park. I found this little section of turbulent water along a path from Luna Island toward the pedestrian bridge to the observation tower.

Movement

My original intent was to capture a view of the Niagara River with the wonderfully turbulent flow. I liked the lamp post that just turned on as I was walking toward the falls and thought this would be a nice image. There were too many people enjoying the park that night and my plan for a people free image were dwindling.

But then I thought it would be a better image if I included the people. It was late, getting dark and I would be using close to a 1 second shutter so the blurred movement of the people would go with the movement energy of the river.

At least that was my thought…
