Horseshoe Falls

Todays bike ride took me by Horseshoe Falls. I made a seven image panorama of the falls from a top Terrapin Point. Photoshop had a ridiculously hard time merging these photos because of the mist. I did manage to produce a small rainbow and retained detail along the Canadian shoreline.

River Run

A glimpse between the trees of the rushing waters of the upper Niagara rapids. Shot in black and white mode with an R-79 infrared filter.

Great Blue Heron II

Same bird as below but zoomed in tighter.

Great Blue Heron

A good find along Cayuga creek. This GBH was intently fishing for breakfast. I had to back off the zoom so I could include his full reflection.

Another Swallow

Beautiful bird giving me some photo time and I'm glad he did. These little birds fly like rockets and are very difficult to shoot in flight. The canon camera I had this day was no where near fast enough to do BIF shots.
