If you have ever visited Yellowstone, you know it is a place of unmatched wonder. The canyons, rivers, forests and the wildlife of this national park are spread throughout 3 states, Wyoming, Montana and Idaho. Because the park sits on top of a volcanic hot spot, there are many basins full of mud pots, hot springs and, of course, geysers, the most famous being Old Faithful. One can find so much beauty on a grand scale here, it's easy to forget to check out the small stuff.
The geyser basins are full of little pools and streams that all seem to have their own personalities. The colors you see vary depending on the species of heat loving bacteria in water and soil. Today, I am showing you one of my favorite bacterial beauties. Enjoy!
This is my submission for the daily photo contest sponsored by and initiated by
AND the daily color challenge initiated by @kalemandra...thought I'd multi-task on this one.
