After making through the border control and doing a bit of hiking on the Niagara River I finally arrived at the Niagara Falls. As I was passing it on my way to the parking lot I saw this rainbow illuminated by the low setting sun. After parking I grabbed my camera and started walking to it and taking pictures. I had some with the buses, and cars and people, getting all in the foreground, still I was taking them as I was afraid that it will disappear. Finally I was able to cross the road and get this one. The mist you see is the mist from the Niagara Horse Shoe Falls.
Btw, I took Step Back photo probably about two hours later, it is still one of my personal favorites.

Amazing … 🙂
Great capture. I assume the rainbow came from the mist, illumated as you say by the setting sun.
… illuminated, and striking contrast of the bare trees.
Beautiful! I love the colors.
Glad you took this photo. Now we know where the pot of gold is – right behind that lamppost.
is that what it means? I need to staret chaising rainbows now 😉
Good things happen when you keep your eyes open. Good capture! 🙂
what a great capture…
This was taken from the Canadian side, right? Just curious 🙂
yep, Canadian side, right across from the main parking area. There isn’t much on the US side of the falls.
Love the colors here. Amazing capture!
Great image! Reminds me of my own taken at the Falls last weekend and featured on my blog “Eyes to Heart.” I know exactly where you had to be standing to capture this. Well done! . … Be well, Dorothy 🙂
Great job with color.
