Nelson Mandela Tribute Niagara Falls · 09:28 PM

Hi everyone. It's been a long while since I posted anything in this thread. I've been following all the great posts and photos, just haven't had anything I thought worthy of showing at all recently. However, tonight the Niagara Parks Commission honoured the passing of Nelson Mandela with a lighting of colours from the South African flag. This was one night only, so I was glad to be there to witness it and capture these photos.

A view across the gorge of both the American and Horsehoe (Canadian) Falls.

Thank you for posting. So nice to see Madiba is remembered, even at the falls!

Thanks Charlie. I saw your series from the Falls. You should see it in the winter some time. It can be quite beautiful with all the ice on the rocks and surrounding fences and trees from the ever present mist.

Thanks for looking and commenting Tess. Enjoy your stay in the area. As you know, it's a nice time with the Festival of Lights and the falls in the winter!
