Sitting here near Niagara Falls right now, I’m amazed at how many times one can return to this spot and be amazed. The aquamarine color of the Niagara River and the power of the falls are always a sight to behold. We caught a double rainbow as we were leaving Horseshoe Falls!
We tried out some new experiences on this trip that were quite rewarding. We hiked the rugged Niagara Glen, visited the amazing Butterfly Conservatory and hung out in quaint Niagara-on-the-Lake (the deep blue of Lake Ontario can be seen below at the mouth of the Niagara River).
Here are a few of the 250 photos we captured from the weekend. We also gathered lots of video footage for future Water Films and music inspiration.
Enjoy! Be sure to scroll all the way down to see one of the butterflies from the conservatory.
Last weekend, we took our first trip to the eastern Upper Peninsula of Michigan. Because we visited a “bear ranch,” we saw more bears there than our summer trip out West :) One of our favorite male black bears is pictured below.
As is the case whenever we travel, we gathered many water and nature images which will appear in future Water Films and guided meditations. These experiences provide creative inspiration for our music and multimedia creations.
Here are some of the highlights from the trip, including Tahquamenon Falls (one of the largest falls east of the Mississippi), Lake Superior and nearby Sable Falls, plus sunset over a small lake in the Lower Peninsula.
Kananaskis Country is just outside Banff National Park in the Canadian Rockies. The peace, quiet and grandeur of the area inspire awe and a deep sense of calm.
This new Water Film also features music inspired by the lakes.
If you enjoy the soundtrack for this film you can download it here.
