Maid of the Mist

Posted by Niña (New York, United States) on 13 June 2008 in Plant & Nature and Portfolio.

The majestic beauty and humbling power of the Niagara Falls fosters a sense of awe and wonder to anyone who sees it. But being so close to it and actually feeling the wind and water push you around is even more amazing. My excitement was flowing as freely as the waters and I just totally immersed myself in it.
This shot was taken aboard the Maid of the Mist on our way back to the dock while the ferry in this photo was just about to start its voyage. I bet, it'll be one of the most amazing 20 minutes of their lives just as it was with me.
And the rainbow? It was the perfect finishing touch to this magical experience! Makes you feel that God really has a hand in this.

"Develop interest in life as you see it; in people, things, literature, music.
The world is so rich, simply throbbing with rich treasures, beautiful souls, and interesting people.
Forget yourself."
