Description
The challenge was to get ENOUGH color in this shot to make it look like the real thing! These hot pools at Yellowstone are the most amazing, intense, brilliant blue I've ever seen. I'm sure it was a combination of the white limestone and the clear blue sky, and it's probably different colors at different times of the day, but this is really what we saw here!
It's probably impossible to go to Yellowstone and not take pictures for their abstract art quality. Since that's the sort of thing I like best, I was in heaven with all the details and angles and colors and lines there.

amazingly clear and colorful
Splendid abstract! I recall large gas bubbles periodically issuing forth out of the dark hole in the bottom of that pool resulting in clouds of steam going skyward. And yes, you nailed the color just as I remember it. Excellent.
wow, this is beautiful!
lovely
Yellowstone is the most amazing place in the entire country! I've been there a couple times, and I'm dying to get back! And yes, those pools are the most beautiful blue - this is just as I remember it. You don't want to dive in to that beautiful clear water, though. Awesome photo, Tara! (You got my vote, BTW..)
I remember a couple years ago some idiot managed to crash a Phantom into one of those pools - then asked a park ranger how to get it back out... I suspect it's still at the bottom of that pool!
Wonderful capture of this place !!!!
Phenomenal ! You have got such hot watery detail in that pool , and although I know that it is NOT to bathe in I feel drawn to it. What dangerous beauty!
ein wunderschönes Foto
Beautiful photo. I've seen this color water in a photo from Yellowstone in a National Geographic MANY years ago! The hot temperature and the blue color make me think of copper compounds. There may be such in this water, adding to the blue. The dark blue indicates a great depth. Thanks for posting this. Keep up the good work! :-)
Quite amazing..and certainly worth a detour...as the Michelin guide write!
Isn't that just beautiful! Amazing color and I love the shimmer on the water. It must have been a wonderful day. Great shot Tara.
Wow.... amazing shot here!
I remember seeing this type of amazing color in Yellowstone - as Bill said, you nailed it...
yes, I remember very well this stunning colors in this wonderful Yellowstone park - was there 1986... long time past.. you got the color perfect!
It is gorgeous; it looks very inviting, but I'm sure it probably isn't advisable to enter that water!
Beautiful capture Tara. Well done.
Very cool, I'd like to see those some day.
Incredibly beautiful Tara! It will be hard for me to stay out the water!
A beautiful color and capture Tara.
Wicked capture beautiful colours
Lot of souvenirs with Yellowstone.
Amazing capture Tara. God bless.
Gosh, it is lovely. Wonderful colors indeed. Beautiful ripples and the profile of Neptunus Rex to the right. What more could one ask for? :D
So beautiful, dear Tar. I wished I was stood by your side here. I have found site mail from rainbows drop down list in gallery. Thank you tara for tying to help me. I appreciate it greatly. Hugs. Di. xx
This I can understand very much, dear Tara, that you was as in heaven, being on this amazing place, where everything is different from anything else (also so it seems to me). And this really is a stunning colour blue, one can fall in love with this photo, (I do anyway!). Totally TOP-CLEAR too.
