Niagara in Winter

I grew up in the Niagara Region.  I don't remember too many years when the falls iced up so heavily in December.  This year's cold was the ticket to great scenes.  I saw lots of great images posted online and had to give it a try myself.  The weather was -16C, windy and misty.  The mist bit my cheekbones then froze to my beard.  I was there Saturday afternoon and Sunday morning,    On my way home, the sun made me feel actually warm.  Walking across the ice, shooting the ship, was weird. The ice was clear but very thick.  Even so, I was glad to get back on land.
