Only after taking a series of photographs did he realize the falls were frozen. "It didn't strike me at first when I took this shot," Perry said. "I thought it looked like teeth, like a monster's smile."

The National Weather Service said extremely cold Arctic air may allow for expansion of the ice across the falls.
