Yellowstone NP

This is Canary Spring at Mammoth Hot Springs in Yellowstone National Park. This image was taken less then 24 hours after an earthquake that diverted the flow of the hot spring from a wide terrace to a thing stream. 3 years earlier, I remember sitting on a bench on the board walk in the morning and enjoying a natural steam bath. After the earthquake, it is only a memory.
