Description

Photographed along the boardwalk near the Grand Prismatic Spring in Yellowstone National Park, this image captures the vivid blues and steaming atmosphere of one of the park’s geothermal pools. The turquoise water glows beneath a veil of rising steam, creating a surreal contrast with the textured mineral crust in the foreground. Soft clouds drift across the sky above the distant tree line, mirroring the movement of the steam below. This moment felt otherworldly and alive — a place where color, heat, and landscape blend into something uniquely Yellowstone. No filters or edits were used.
