A flower of little flowers

A flower of little flowers

A flower of little flowers

This one is like a little flower bouquet with a star-shaped handle

From far, it looked like one big flower, a big surprise to see its actually lots of little ones.

A reminder of how things are made of smaller things, and from there smaller things we cannot see in plain sight like cells, then smaller things like molecules and from the atoms, and next little particles that have only been theorized of existence.

It makes one wonder, how long till the little thingies are so tiny that there is no way that they can be made of even tinnier things. Or does that go to infinite division, smaller and smaller to point we humans will never understand.

Sorry from
the silly pseudo-science Jessica

When night fall on Niagara, they send color lights against the waterfalls.
So the water turns colorful.

Its nice to see, and from the high view point one can also see the city from above. but is not as impressive as the waterfalls.

And then to party on the city.

Flower 3

Flor 3

Oculto se encuentra un deseo que quema
entre sombras y niebla buscando escapar
temeroso de un encuentro que piensa mortal
se impide a si mismo salir y gozar.

Flower 3

a pretty flower.

attempt of translation

Hidden lies a burning desire
among shadows and fog trying to scape
afraid of a meeting that it thinks as deadly
forbidding itself to go out and shine.

Niagara WaterFall

In Niagara there is a boat trip called "Maid of the mist"

The boat, than can be seen in one of my previous pics, goes along the river coming really close to the waterfalls.

They gave you a little raincoat, since the mist and watersplash is sure to make you go extremelly wet. I saw it on one arm I left outside :P

Its really impressive. Its from down there that one can actually see how big the waterfalls are, as opossed to the views from the walk area on the side.

when coming close to the big Canadian one, it swings a lot, Yupiiiiii.

Another picture of the Canadian Niagara Falls, You can see the little boat there, is the "Lady of the Mist" Boat, It goes close to the waterfall.

Impressive thing is the mist area in the center, From postcards I saw that sometimes its not there so the full waterfall is viewable, must be pretty, but like this is impressive too.

And see the bird there, well while on the boat, we saw a few birds (I think they were ducks) flying there in that close to the waterfall area.
