Green Delight
Featured in All Countries ~ Wetlands, Ponds, Lakes and Rivers – Aug 9th, 2009
I was driving around the Grand Loop Road in Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming, USA and somewhere between Madison and Mammoth Hot Springs I found this small creek called Obsidian Creek almost completely covered with aquatic grasses. I love the way they bend with the flow of a waterway creating patterns and layers of green with some blue sky reflected in water. I just had to stop and take a picture and it was so worth it. I hope you agree.

wow, I love this photo hon, it reminds me of a very delicate painting. I bet there is a pool under there, looks like it
Teresa Zieba replied
It looked so lovely and so green. The patterns were left by animals I bet and by flow of the water. Thanks hon.

Love this shot, perfect fav.
Teresa Zieba replied
It was such an amazing view. It’s an Obsidian Creek flowing under all this grass.
Charlene Aycoc...
There were so many amazing views, and I know we spent 5 days and 4 nights there and I am sure we did not see it all.
Teresa Zieba replied
I’m planning next visit already. We definitely didn’t see all of it.

I love this but I almost wonder if the flowers actually take away from the composition.
Teresa Zieba replied
You might be right. I have a couple more shots at this location and I will try to post one without flowers so you can see what it looks like. Thanks for commenting.
