This is beautiful! The colors are what caught my eye first. The beautiful orange and brilliant blue sky. I have never been to a hot springs before. It sure looks like a nice place to visit.

    It could happen. I have a son-in-law in the Army. Every 2-3 years they move.

This is both very interesting and very beautiful at the same time, the deep blue sky above with just slight cloud detail, the dark grassy bank , the white mist rising from the hot springs the rich gold and rusty tones in the microorganisms surrounding the spring water all coming together in this scene in such a lovely way! This is of course well focused, the image is clear, exposure is well controlled, colors and tones appear natural,this is well composed , effectively post processed and well presented! Artists notes are interesting and appreciated!

An excellent shot, Steve, and notes. I really like that you included so much of the colorful area encircling the spring. It's undulations and colors add so much character to the scene and are a perfect lead in to the mists of the spring. Excellent DOF and clarity and detail too. Composed perfectly. Great job! Ed.

An incredible closeup view of this hot spring with outstanding color and beautiful detail. Excellent perspective with a detailed and layered look of the waters. Your artistic notes are so educational and informative. Amazing color as a result of various microorganisms. Fantastic capture FS!

You have composed this picture of Grand Prismatic Spring very well! This gives a wonderful look at the amazing colors of the thermophiles and also the steam rising from the hot spring. I was there a few years ago. It's an amazing place.
