p.1 #1 · Yellowstone- #5 Colorful flow

Mid Geyser Basin.
As the water flows from the boiling hot springs to the Firehole River, it begins to cool.
As it cools, algae grow. Different kinds of algae grow in different temperatures.
Hence the many and varied colors of the outflow.

Thanks, Denovo.
The steam was rising from a very large hot springs, and a slight breeze kept it low for awhile.

Charlie, that landscape looks fantastic. Pretty neat with all that steam rising up and the greens from the algae.

Thanks, Tuan Le.
Along with Grand Canyon and Yosemite, I include Yellowstone in my list of the top three places every American should visit.
