Just saw your entry, then saw this story almost immediately, about a woman who fell into the rapids downstream of the falls on Monday.

It’s an overwhelming feeling to stand so close to them. Of course, the sprays from the water are also welcome on a hot summer’s day!

It’s like watching a liquid earthquake. You can see the unusual green of the moving mass of water in your photo to the right and in this 1830 painting by Thomas Cole. The color, according to Wikipedia, comes from ground rock and dissolved salts.
