Grand Pismatic Spring ~ Yellowstone National Park


Grand Prismatic Spring ~ Yellowstone National Park



If you've seen pictures of 



mineral spring


my guess is 


you've seen pictures of 

Grand Prismatic Springs.


Not only is it 



the biggest,


but also the most colorful.


The colors were amazing.


I had difficulty capturing them.


The temperatures that day


caused the steam to hover


over the water.

Occastionally a gust of wind would 



dispel  the steam


just long enough 

to sneak in a shot.  Simply beautiful.

Mud Volcanoes and Buffalo Closeups ~ Yellowstone National Park

Mud Volcanoes & Buffaloes ~ Yellowstone National Park





These buffaloes chose


the perfect place 


for a wallow.


Who could ask for


a better closeup?


I definitely wouldn't want 


to be this close


with no barriers and fences.


Wild flowers 


also put on 


quite a show for us 


as we walked


along the board walk.


Such a 


grand 


and 


glorious 


place to 

explore.



Beauty 


and 


adventure


around every turn in the trail.

Our little jaunt 


through mud volcanos

got us some closeup

shots of buffaloes from the safety of the walkway.

Dragon Mouth Springs sparks the imagine 

to think what it would be like to find a real dragons lair.  Oh if only ...
