Niagara Falls and Niagara River.

Here are couple of panorama shots I have taken and stitched on my iPhone using AutoStitch App.

Here is some info I found about the Niagara Falls:

The Niagara Falls are voluminous waterfalls on theNiagara River, straddling the international borderbetween the Canadian province of Ontario and theU.S. state of New York. The falls are 17 miles (27 km) north-northwest of Buffalo, New York and 75 miles (120 km) south-southeast of Toronto, Ontario, between the twin cities of Niagara Falls, Ontario, and Niagara Falls, New York.

Niagara Falls is composed of two major sections separated by Goat IslandHorseshoe Falls, the majority of which lies on the Canadian side of the border, and American Falls on the American side. The smaller Bridal Veil Falls are also located on the American side, separated from the main falls byLuna Island.

Niagara Falls were formed when glaciers receded at the end of the Wisconsin glaciation (the last ice age), and water from the newly-formed Great Lakes carved a path through the Niagara Escarpment en route to the Atlantic Ocean. While not exceptionally high, the Niagara Falls are very wide. More than six million cubic feet (168,000 m³) of water falls over the crest line every minute in high flow,[1] and almost 4 million cubic feet (110,000 m³) on average. It is the most powerful waterfall in North America.[2]

The Niagara Falls are renowned both for their beauty and as a valuable source of hydroelectric power. Managing the balance between recreational, commercial, and industrial uses has been a challenge for the stewards of the falls since the 1800s.

Here is some info I found about the Niagara River:  

The Niagara River flows north from Lake Erie toLake Ontario. It forms part of the border between the Province of Ontario in Canada and New YorkState in the United States. There are differing theories as to the origin of the name of the river. According to Iroquoian scholar Bruce Trigger, "Niagara" is derived from the name given to a branch of the locally residing native Neutral Confederacy, who are described as being called the "Niagagarega" people on several late 17th century French maps of the area.[3] According toGeorge R. Stewart, it comes from the name of anIroquois town called "Ongniaahra", meaning "point of land cut in two".[4]
