Biscuit Basin, Sapphire Pool, Yellowstone NP, USA.

Yellowstone National Park, USA.
I think maybe that when you visit Yellowstone, it feels like you are on another planet, nothing seems for real !
The colours and ‘scapes are outlandish, like Mother Nature flipped out ! Weird and wonderful !
It can be difficult to photograph – the wind was blowing the hot steam towards me very often, fogging up the lens, making everything very wet, not good with those electronics !
( I was told that the moisture from the steam can actually etch the lens, so be warned !)
The other problem is folk passing by making the boardwalk bounce around, shaking the tripod…......LOL !!
Fall is a great time to visit, a bit crowded, but those colours really zing out, and the steam is intensified by the cold Autumn air.
Oh to be there in Winter…..............

Shot on my Canon EOS 40D, hand held, f13, 1/90 sec, at 49mm, iso 100, auto wb, polarising filter, RAW file, processed in PS CS3, levels/curves, selective colour adjustments, finished with LAB colour and Intellisharpen.

    Amazing…did you know that the whole of yellowstone is a super volcano and the next time it erupts it will be 1000s of time more powerful than St Helens and basically cover an area the size of the US in 3 metres of ash? Or was it 10 metres…anyways, not good for real estate values and visiting tourists I guess…incredible place
