 Iron Spring Creek again. This time looking at Cliff Geyser. The geese seem to get along pretty well with the water and the geysers. They don't even take notice. |
 Emerald Pool at Black Sand Basin. |
|
 |
A view of the whole of Black Sand Basin with Iron Spring Creek flowing through the middle. |
| I believe this is Shell Geyser at Biscuit Basin. This one doesn't erupt
much, it just boils and bubbles. |
 |
 |
Some of the flow off Biscuit Basin. This looks pretty nasty, but it's all bacteria of various types. |
More bacteria. Very colorful! |
 |
 One of the free-ranging elk herds in the park. This was along the road from Old Faithful to Madison. |
 Surprise Lake on Firehole Lake Drive - almost looks like snow. . . |
 Geysers at Fountain Paint Pot. That's Spasm Geyser in the foreground and Clepsydra Geyser in the background. |
 Give up? It's a shot of shallow water rippling over a rocky bottom. The algae-like bacteria on the bottom gives it the color and the sun shining at an oblique angle gives it the sparkle. This was taken just off Firehole Lake Drive. |
