Yellowstone is a very curious place.. one of a kind for sure. Though i was enamored more by Grand Tetons, the beauty of Yellowstone is undeniable though hard to capture as it does not have the sweeping vista's of say Yosemite or Tetons for that matter.
This photograph was taken early morning as i was returning from shooting midway geyers(shot below in an earlier post). Firehole lake drive literally takes you through a steaming lake bubbling with sulphur springs. I saw a bunch of smaller trees outlined against the much larger one's behind and instantly wanted to take this kind of shot.
Since i had forgotten my whole camera kit at home i had to make do with the kit lens(70-300) that comes with the Canon Rebel package that i got from the local Costco. Hopefully stopping it over to f8 gave me the best sharpness i could have got.
This image was originally in color but since there was so little color info in the first place i decided to convert it to B&W and then ran an infrared filter in CS3 to bring out the steam/treeline contrast. I'm really hoping to get to visit some more parks this year.. let's see how it goes as the year progresses.
