    Thanks so much! Yes, it is Yellowstone National Park. We were there in July. A photographers dream! You'll love it!

    did you see any wolves was it cold?
reply by the author on 16-Aug-2013
    It was warm, but it'll be cooler in Oct. The wolves are way back, so unless you have a high powered scope (which I don't) they are only a speck.

This is very cool to look at. I like the contrast of the warm rust earthy color with the very cool blue color of the pool and sky. Nice fat white clouds and dark mountainous area adds interest to the photo as well. Very nice.

    Thank you so much for your insight. I love when people "read" a photo.

This is interesting the way the ground and colors look in this. I like the way you see the steam coming up from the water and ground. I think this would have been better if you had cropped a little off of the top so that the frame was not divided in half by the two sections. That would have raised your colored section up a little more and made it the most important part of the picture.

    Thanks for you comments and suggestions. It is pretty much divided in thirds, with sky and hills being the top third. That's how I view it anyways.

A nice colourful photograph of a natural phenomenon.
The composition is good and has good detail throughout.
Thank you for sharing.

Wow, pretty spectacular. Love the blue sky and clouds, and the lighting, DOF, and color is great. I love the colors it gets from thermo activity and you captured it well.

MAy make for a great photo but from what I hear the smell leaves something to be desired. Nice composition, nice coloring and an extra 1/2 star for tolerating it! PS love the sky
