Grand Prismatic

 

Grand prismatic is a large geothermal area.  The mid day light made it difficult to capture an image of the entire area that would make it appear as dramatic as it felt.  So, instead, I decided to focus on just a small area. 

Although difficult to see in the image at left, there is a thin layer of water flowing down thousands of little step like structures.  A close up would be nice but I really liked the idea of all the elevated pathways.  Because there were much fewer visitors in late September, I was able to isolate and capture a silhouette of just two persons on one of the walks.  Earlier in the summer, this would have been impossible with all of the persons visiting the park.
