Over Niagara's Edge

My picture today has the sense an aerial view of the California coast. What I did was colourize the parking lot lines at the mall in Sacramento. The ocean, the green hills, and then the inland dessert.  And then  I compared it to a real aerial abstract. Here it is below.  One of Redbubble's artists is Mieke Boynton and her specialty is abstract aerial photography.  This is one of her coastal views of Australia.  Her Redbubble website is HERE



The news today is that Thursday's windstorm has pushed the Niagara River wreck closer to the edge of Niagara Falls.  It is about 50 metres closer to toppling over the Horseshoe Falls in the wake of Halloween's howling windstorm.

The wreck celebrated its 100th anniversary in 2018. In August 1918, the scow broke away from its towing tug and began to slip toward the edge of the falls. Two unfortunate Niagara Falls Power Company employees were rescued from the scow after it lodged itself on a shoal in the rapids. 
The wrecked appears to have "flipped on its side and spun around" thanks to Thursday night's winds, according to Jim Hill, the Senior Manager of Heritage for Niagara Parks.
