Just some photos I took on my first trip up there, almost 20 years ago now! Wow!

Do you still have the camera you took these photo's with?
I believe I do, although I haven't used it in years. It is a Canon 35mm P&S - yep, I just checked, it's the Zoom XL.
I have no idea if it would still work - the battery is probably still in there, and it must be about 15 years or more since it was last switched on!

Hi Bloke, LIke your shots. I was a Trombone player for about 15 years, played in the Army and had my own group.

Thanks. I've been playing for some 45 years now... Played in a (British) army band, and all kinds of combos since. These days, I play in church occasionally, but don't keep up the practice, so I suffer greatly to get my lip back in when I am called upon.
I've played in several town/community bands over the years, but it gets too frustrating, after playing 'pro'. I don't have a problem with beginners - several bands had members bring their kids along to join in over the summer, and that was fun - but I can't stand people who just don't *try*. The final straw for me last time around, was a horn player who had been playing *forever*, and couldn't count in 6/8 time... A nice slow 6, he was to pay on 3,4,5,6, but we spent almost an entire rehearsal and he just couldn't get it. That was just so - ARRRGGGHHHH! If you are not just learning or starting out, you need to be able to handle the basics if you want to play with a group.

Excellent, especially 2 and 3!
The spot where I took no. 3 is a must, for anyone going there. You can stand about 6 feet away from the water going over the edge, and it is almost hypnotic. You really get a sense of just how much water is moving by...

Love #2 and #3 the best, but they are all good. Everyone needs to go to Niagara at least once in their life.
