Description
The image captures an aerial perspective of Niagara Falls, showing both the Horseshoe Falls in the foreground and the American Falls slightly downstream. The Niagara River flows from the bottom right to the top center of the image, with mist rising from the falls. A bridge spans the river between the U.S. and Canada, and both cities are visible on either side, densely packed with buildings, streets, and landmarks. A portion of the airplane wing is visible in the bottom right corner. The Love Canal neighborhood was located in southern Niagara Falls, New York
