Niagara Falls Rainbow, New York
Photograph by Walter Meayers Edwards
A shared landmark between the United States and Canada, Niagara Falls comprises three waterfalls: American, Bridal Veil, and Horseshoe. In 1969 the United States Army Corps of Engineers diverted water from American Falls for several months. Their aim was to assess the possibility of moving the loose rocks at the base to improve the falls’ appearance.

Northern Lights, Canada, 2000
Photograph by Raymond Gehman
"With infinite wilderness overhead, a traveler’s tent lit from within turns into a starship navigating the northern lights. Contrary to widely held belief, the aurora borealis is not strictly a phenomenon of winter lights in the Arctic. It paints summer skies as well, and can occur as far south as Yellowstone."
—From the National Geographic book Yellowstone to Yukon, 2000

摄影者：Raymond Gehman
在浩瀚的苍野下，一个里面亮着光的旅行帐篷好似星际之船行进在北极光中。与人们的共识相反，北极光并非仅仅是北极冬季里的光亮现象。它同样出现在夏天，甚至出现在远至南方的黄石公园。
