Description
This was taken at Midway Geyser Basin. I think I'll be posting a few more from here and then be done with Yellowstone. I got some interesting shots of colorful hot springs and reflections. We'll see what happens.
Anyway, this is where the basin drains into the cool river, and I liked the contrast. I'll be surprised if anyone thinks this is "pretty," but I hope you find it interesting.
I'm slowly getting boxes unpacked and catching up with comments. I'm behind only about 150 now LOL.

Very cool shot ... I love that you take us to see places we will most likely never see ... Keep them coming!
It sure reminds me of the lava flow coming down the slopes. "Beautiful". Surprised? Aloha
Beautiful composition and perspective. Well done!
reminds of sharky's lava captures. great capture!
awesome capture of this most interesting and amazing place!!... excellent!!
how interesting this is, never see this here...great shot
Its beautiful by all means and besides: it a great shot!
Yellowstone is beautiful - so is this photo! Well done!
Yes, pretty is not the word for it, but beautiful works! It's a stark, perhaps even harsh beauty. The mineral colors are fascinating and the steam rises softens an otherwise stern image.
Amazing capture of hot meeting cold. Great shot.
A fantastic capture which brings back very good memories!! Thanks for sharring Have a nice evening Henk
I will assume the yellow is sulfur? In any case, I won't call it beautiful but it has a very strong pull to it. I find the shine of the condensation on the rock very pleasant and the steam rising gives me a sense of water condition here. Excellent.
"Stubborn beauty." (A lyric from one of my favorite groups.) Seems appropriate. This is harsh and bare, and certainly not what you and I are used to seeing as beauty, but it does have a certain appeal. Great shot - thanks for taking me there with your camer!
Really neat, I'll bet all the hot springs were a sight to see!! Any odor...sulfurous or otherwise? Photos I have seen are so colorful, orange, red and yellow mineral deposits.
Excellent and very interesting shot. Thanks for sharing!
great shot...
I thought we saw most of Yellowstone in our three days there but you keep showing me places we didn't visit. I love the gold color in this and that hot water meeting the cold.
No, not pretty, but very majestic. Nature is awesome. Thank you for your views on her. :~)
