Taken on the 'ultimate' in tourist trap destinations - the Maid of the Mist. We got soaked but had a surprisingly good time. Taken during a late afternoon boat ride.

Thanks for the wonderful commments.

Really surprised with the good finish, especially considering the quality of work that finished behind mine. And I don't recall any image where I got no votes below 4.

This looks great in black and white. I like how you can still see part of the falls through the mist.

Nice shot.

Yep, this works. Only visited the Falls once, but I found them impossible to photograph while I was there because the spray was basically making it rain the whole time. Nice job capturing this spectacular display of water and gravity with unusually high clarity.
