The Rage

Posted by Mike on

The pre-show area of the American Falls in Niagara Falls State Park would have to be the rapids. The energy and raw power of the moving water was mesmerizing. It didn’t help to already have a fascination with water prior to visiting. I had to keep reminding myself to continue the walk to the observation deck, the sun was setting and I was loosing light. This is a section of the rapids about a 100 yards from the falls.

Bellamy Harbor Park

Posted by Mike on

I have a few regular haunts that are not too far from the house. Bellamy Harbor Park is in the south of Rome, NY along the Barge Canal where the Black River enters. Surprisingly I haven’t visited as much as usual this summer. The other night I stopped by and was greeted with plenty of photographic opportunities. Now I don’t know if there just happened to be more going on that night or I have learned to see more of them. 🙂

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.
