Niagara Falls and Welland Canal

In late May 2005, I made a short trip up to Niagara Falls. The weather couldn't have been more beautiful; barely a cloud in the sky with comfortable temperatures. I spent some time photographing the falls, but spent even more time taking photos along the Welland Canal. Luck was on my side that day as there was enough traffic transiting through the canal to keep me busy almost all afternoon. Well, here's the photos from my trip. Enjoy!

Note: These photos are considerably larger than the rest of the boat photos on my site, and will take more time to load; they average around 1 MB per photo.
