Across what is said to be 'the most peaceful border in the world', the Niagara Falls are a shared natural heritage, popular since the middle of the 19th century with the burgeoning tourist industry.
Among the best views of the American Falls are those from the Canadian side; most the of the Horseshoe Falls are in Canada, too; but it's hard not to think of the Falls as whole as one amazing natural phenomenon.
I'll look for some photos sometime; not that they are not already so well known.
In 1969, the American Falls were experimentally de-watered, and photos from the period show rather unusual views!
The American Falls are geographically approaching the status of rapids, given the large amount of boulders that have periodically detached themselves from the brow of the Falls.
