One of our boys took my camera to Niagara with him recently,
and came back with some great shots of the autumn colours at Niagara Glen.
Niagara Glen is along the Canadian side of the Niagara Gorge,
at the site of the Niagara Whirlpool.
The gorge and whirlpool were created about six to seven thousand years
ago as the Niagara River slowly eroded its way through the Niagara Escarpment. Erosion resistant bedrock forced a right-angle
turn in the river's path at the site of the Whirlpool, where the rushing waters
are forced into a deep counter-clockwise spin.
Despite being a few kilometres downriver from the Niagara Falls, there
is still a considerable amount of mist in the air.
He also captured these shots of our dogs a few weeks ago. I think he's going to be getting a camera of his own for Christmas!
Beautiful photos scenery and colours :-)
ReplyDeleteGorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteI have a soft spot for Niagara but I've never been there this time of year. We did go in early October once, but just as a quick stopover. I only remember some Tim Horton's pumpkin coffee! We don't have Tim Horton's here.
I've been here myself - such a gorgeous place and it looks like you caught it just in perfect time for Fall colours. just beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI think I remember still being able to hear the roar of the Falls in the distance too.
Gorgeous photos! Yes, definitely get that kid a camera for xmas!
ReplyDeleteOntario's autumn is nowhere near as far along as ours -- all our leaves are long gone here in Alberta. I noticed that just this morning too, when I saw Justin Trudeau and his cabinet walking to Rideau Hall on television amidst all that beautiful fall foliage.
Beautiful! He did a great job with the pictures!
ReplyDeleteSO pretty - what stunning scenery!

Wow the colors of the trees are stunning!
ReplyDeleteWe were up at Niagara Falls less than 2 weeks ago and it was beautiful. Your post has convinced us we need to get a passport so we can trek on over to Canada.
ReplyDeleteIncredible variety of Fall colors! Tell your son he did good:)
ReplyDeleteGorgeous photos! Autumn is alive and well there! From #HappyDiariesLinky.
ReplyDeleteWe went there recently but, for once, I didn't take my phone! It looks awesome!
ReplyDeleteI love all the autumnal colours and the mist gives the photos an almost ethereal quality. Well done to your son for taking such great pictures.
ReplyDeleteYou son got some great captures! The fall colors are very pretty.
ReplyDeleteWhat an incredible view! Your boy was certainly lucky to get to see it in person, but I'm ever so glad he took photos too so we can all enjoy the beauty.
ReplyDeleteHe has taken some incredible photos! the fall colors really do stir my soul...unfortunately we don't really have them here, and that makes me terribly sad. They call to my soul. *sigh*
