The grand Prismatic Spring in Yellowstone is a tough picture to take. It is too big for even my super wide angle lens to get it all. The blue glow above the blue water has to be seen to be believed. The vapors from the hot water do act as a prism of sorts.
This beautiful geyser lasts for twenty minutes and one can choose many angles to shoot from as it goes on and on.

I used my Canon EOS Digital Rebel XT with EOS Lens 18 -55. / BEST VIEWED LARGE. TAKEN AS IS. I loved taking these shots at Yellowstone National Park, Wy., because the colors are amazing there, and the volcanic activity etc is also amazing…the park is not to far from where I live and I figure all the volcanic activity in my own mountains could even be related to Yellowstone. The earth is very much alive in this whole area. I mean several States, and if you hike you will find even more that you would never see any other way. Mother nature is full of peace and rage both, and this is a perfect example of that to me.
Taken at Mammoth Hot Springs (Yellowstone Nat’l Park, WY) on a cold September morning. The sun was beginning to break through the fog, but the boardwalk still led through an eerie scene. Probably my favorite as I like the mystery. Canon Elan II / Velvia film.
There has been one sale of this image. In November 2008 this image was featured in the group, Buyers R Us. In February 2009, this image placed third in the U.S. Parks Wildlife Shots challenge hosted by the AMERICA’s National Parks and WILDLIFE Habitat group. A thousand Yellowstone wonders are calling, ‘Look up and down and round about you! John Muir – 1898 The temperatures were in the single digits on this cold, snowy January morning at West Thumb Geyser Basin, which is one of the smallest geyser basins in Yellowstone. A incredibly scenic area along the shore of Yellowstone Lake, West Thumb only has a small amount of geyser activity. However, the basin more than makes up for it with its diversity. Despite its small size, it has paint/mud pots, hot springs, pools, lake shore geysers, and fumaroles. Fumaroles are small openings that release steam and other gasses. You can see in the foreground the muddy, soupy waters inundating the paint pots. The white area beyond the tree line in the right hand side of the photograph is Yellowstone Lake. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ Please don’t copy or download this image.

Black wolf seemed to be alone between Norris and Canyon in Yellowstone Park on Mother’s Day. She loped along side the highway, just inside the tree line, for miles.
This is an abstract image taken at the edge of a thermal spring in the West Thumb geyser basin in Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming. While the image appears to not contain any living thing, the colors themselves are in fact a product of the microscopic organisms called Thermophiles which thrive at extremely high temperatures. When visiting Yellowstone, you will see different veins of colors surrounding the fumaroles, geysers and thermal pools. The various colors in these mats are different types of Thermophiles which thrive at specific temperatures or have preferences for alkaline, acidic, or sulphiric enviroments. The enviroment determines the type of Thermophile that lives there and this diversity creates the colors you see. The color in this image is exactly as it was taken by my camera. It is not a macro image. At the top right, the turquoise color is the very edge of the thermal pool, the white border is mineral deposits and the brown and yellow and orange colors are the Thermophile living in a mat surrounding the pool. / This image has sold as a laminated print and a matted print 3 times through RedBubble. /

My nephew went to Yellowstone over the weekend and asked me to play with some of his pictures. This is what I came up with.
THIS BEAR WAS FEEDING ON AN ELK WHEN A SMALL GROUP OF CYOTES CAME ALONG. BELIEVE IT OR NOT THE CYOTES DIDN’T SEEM TO FEAR THIS GUY AT ALL. THERE WHERE SIX OTHER PHOTOGRAPHERS TAKEING SHOTS FROM ABOUT 30 YARDS AWAY. I USED A 600MM LENS TO GET THIS SHOT. I HAVE ANOTHER SHOT OF THE SAME BEAR BEFORE THE CYOTES CAME. / Canon F-1,Fujichrome 50,600mm lens
During a trip to Yellowstone we made the drive through Beartooth Pass. We got caught in a blizzard at the top of the pass. The snowstorm resulted in a few nice images though. This is one of them. Following this road leads you to a junction where you can head east toward Cody, WY or into the NE entrance of Yellowstone. Beartooth Pass has been featured in the following groups: COUNTRY ROADS / Around the World, Landscape Photography Canon EOS 20D / SIGMA 10-20mm f/4-5.6 EX DC HSM / 3-exposure HDR
This was taken in West Yellowstone On 10/25/08. This little coyote was pretty brave. Scavaging for food that people might spare. Unfortunantly due to humans feeding him, he most likely will be put down by park rangers, due to his “no fear” policy. Please don’t feed the animals!!!
This is one of the many waterfalls in West Yellostone NP…This was taken on 10/25/08. / All profit will go to Chloe and her family during this hard time… May you have strength and power from our Lord little one!!!

Just a few miles inside Yellowstone is an area that attracts the mature bulls during the winter. On a lucky Friday the 13th recently I encounter a group of five large bulls. They provided this rare group picture opportunity though not without challenge as they were hanging about half mile off the road necessitating a hike with full gear through crusty snow which at times rose to mid thigh.

Wolf in Yellowstone taken from high and far with 400mm, then cropped in Photoshop to give the illusion of nearness.
Dead of winter in Yellowstone’s Lamar Valley. Wolves and Bison coexist, but if the Bison weaken they may fall prey to the patient wolf pack. Absent obvious illness or weakness in the Bison, the wolves remain a safe distance knowing that the injury they would incur in a frontal attack would undoubtedly lead to their own demise.

Taken in Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming, USA. Driving along the park road early one morning, there was a small dip in the road where the early morning mist had lingered. I frantically shot as much as I could, knowing it would rapidly vanish with the sun getting higher in the sky. It was so unbelievably beautiful, I felt like I was dreaming ! / A very magical five minutes that is forever etched in my memory. / The tree skeletons are relics of that huge fire in the Eighties. I shot on my Canon EOS 40D, mounted on tripod, polarising filter attached, iso 100, Auto WB, f22, 1/15 sec, RAW file processed in Adobe Camera Raw, then CS3, with selective levels and curves adjustments, also selective colour. Other than that, the shot kinda took itself !

Walkway in Yellowstone National Park late in the year. The steam you see is caused by the pools combined with the cold chill of morning. “This is the path I have chosen, no matter what circumstances may come, no matter how hard it is, no matter what I feel inside, I must stay on the path.”
Taken in Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming, USA. Pretty much a tourist snapshot of the Falls, which I thought I would share with you ! / A rather crowded place, justifiably so, who wouldn’t want to see this sight ? The Canyon has some amazing colours, and I found the best time was towards evening to be viewed at it’s best. The vertiginous slopes are very loose and crumbly, and I wondered how those trees maintain their perilous foothold !! Shot on a Canon EOS 40D, polariser, tripod, f22, 1/3 sec, iso 100, auto wb, RAW file processed in PS CS3, levels/curves/selective colour adjustments.
