Niagara Whirlpool
(This picture can be enlarged by clicking on it.)
The Niagara River below the falls rushes through a fairly narrow gorge at fantastic speeds. Then, about three miles below the falls, the river makes a 90-degree turn, which results in a fascinating whirlpool. The picture above was taken from the top of the gorge. The whirlpool can be seen to the left of center in the picture. The boat in the picture is pointing toward the top of the whirlpool.

Great photo of the whirlpool, George! You're making me want to go and see it live sometime this fall.
The water is such a pretty color! Terrific photo.
The boat seems like heading towards danger, which in fact must not. People in there must have a lot of fun.
Okay. Now I have got to plan a trip to Niagra Falls for our next adventure. This photo is amazing.
This picture brings back many childhood memories. It's a super shot of the whirlpool.

Great photo and interesting observation of the whirlpool. There's a lot of power in that water!
Wow, gorgeous photo George!
I don't think I'd want to be in that boat. :)

George beautiful image. Tell you the truth I fear rivers, but from far away they are amazingly photogenic. Anna :)
That's a wonderful view you shot of that gorge! I'm not sure I would want to be in a boat so near that huge eddy..might become a very interesting boat ride!
That water looks angry,yet at the same time fascinating.

What a great shot.. Love the color of the water!
Wonderful shots, wonderful trips!
Simply magnificent!
Hi George. What a beautiful shot. I haven't seen Niagara.
Great photography!
The scene is doubtlessly wonderful...I am sure that enjoyed capturing this very much!
Interesting patterns the water currents create!
So many photos fron Niagara and You found still more one excellent photo.
Lovely colors.
The water is absolutely the most rich shade of teal, and it's a lovely shot of nature "doing her thing!"
