We spent much of the day simply gazing at Niagara Falls rainbows…

Christmas Pea Soup Fog – visibility less than 1/8th of a mile and ceilings below 100 feet. CAT III ILS minimums. We need a certified aircraft and a specially certified pilot to fly this. We need Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer.

This dusk, we saw an Impressionist Sunset that rivals the works of Monet. The sky was lit in blazing hues of yellow and orange, giving way to red and pink. I took these shots with Elsy at home, on Van Buren, and Lafayette Streets, Richmond Terrace, and Clinton Ave.

Amazing NYC Sunset – the entire sky was cast in hues of yellow and orange that reflected off the buildings in Lower Manhattan, Jersey City and Brooklyn.

In New York City, the Supermoon Eclipse was visible until the moon was 3/8 in shadow. The moon was obscured by a thick overcast for the remainder of the eclipse.

The Skylon Tower’s observation decks are best enjoyed at dusk, where you have views of Niagara Falls, Buffalo, and Toronto. The observation deck is one of the Falls’ best value for the money, but skip the food and eat elsewhere.

The Maid of the Mist is a must-do for Niagara Falls visitors. It is the most intimate, beautiful, and adrenaline-driven experiences of the region….I would dare say, skip all the tourist traps. Just get on the boat and on the tower platform!

The views from Niagara Falls State Park Observation Tower are absolutely stunning and easily rival those of the Canadian side….

I made these manmade double rainbows while misting roses one July morning. Apparently, I had that perfect 40-degree angle between the sun and the ground…
