Waterfalls

I love waterfalls. There is something about falling water, the texture, the patterns formed as it moves rapidly or slowly over the rocks and down through space.

There is beauty to be seen in the power of a waterfall in spring as it roars with the full throat of snow melts. Or in the delicate spiderweb design that is created in a small creek that trickles across the rocks.
On our trip to Thunder Bay we saw a wide variety of waterfalls, both in Ontario as well as Minnesota.

You can see other images of waterfalls in these two galleries:
- Ontario waterfalls
- Minnesota waterfalls

Please feel free to leave comments here on the blog or in any of the photo galleries.

Thanks for looking.

Thunder Bay, Ontario

Back at the end of July this year, my wife Marilyn and I took a trip to Thunder Bay, Ontario. We had been wanting to take this trip for several years, but always seemed to end up somewhere else.

We traveled up the 417, staying at North Bay, Sault Ste Marie and Marathon on the way up. Northern Ontario is simply beautiful to see. While we seldom deviated from the main highway, there was still many interesting things to see along the way: provincial parks, waterfalls, even Winnie the Pooh. ::smile::

Other photos from Thunder Bay can be seen in my Thunder Bay gallery.
