Those are cool! Didn't know they put lights behind them. I love the second one with the waterfall and fireworks.

They don't. It'd be a s.o.b. to changes the bulbs.!!

There's a building on the Canadian side that has a rooftop with huge spot lights to get the effect you see. They go on every night at dark.

Nice shots Jeff. I like the photo stitch.

Thanks, the first one is just upstream (~200m) from the falls on the US side. There's a nice walking path there and several spots for pictures.

You have some pretty good ones there but, the night shots need a longer exposure imo.
