Quiet Light

Niagara Falls is a group of three waterfalls at the southern end of Niagara Gorge, spanning the border between the province of Ontario in Canada and the state of New York in the United States. The largest of the three is Horseshoe Falls, which straddles the international border of the two countries, also known as the Canadian Falls, which is the one in this photo. This little house is called Journey Behind The Falls, where tourists can walk out through a tunnel to get very close to the bottom of Canadian Falls. In this freezing cold Winter morning, I came here during twilight and captured this long exposure photo. The weak but warm light coming from the little house popped out from the heaving snow and ice. Though the sound of waterfalls was so loud, this warm light seemed to be so peaceful and quiet.
