A few more from Yellowstone

I need much more practice with the D70 to do this place justice, and I hope to be able to go back next summer to get another chance . . .


Fly fishing in the Yellowstone River:

NIKON D70    ---    70mm    f/8.0    1/400s    ISO 200

As a chemist, these vents struck me not only as beautiful, but life-sustaining, since bacteria and algae can live on hydrogen sulfide and carbon monoxide in the absence of sunlight . . .

NIKON D70    ---    27mm    f/8.0    1/200s    ISO 200

I believe that's a trout that surfaced . . .

NIKON D70    ---    31mm    f/8.0    1/200s    ISO 200

This gentleman attracted quite a crowd and then plopped down in this sulfurous marsh . . .

NIKON D70    ---    165mm    f/11.0    1/125s    ISO 200

Thanks, guys for having a look and commenting.

Gordon - for me, Yellowstone is the most naturally enticing place I've ever been.

Gale - The only ways in which it could have been better were 1) having more time to spend there and, 2) not having the Eastern entrance restricted to between 8:00 a.m. and 8:00 p.m so that I could have captured some scenes in morning and evening light . . .

biggstr6 - I can assure you that the Yellowstone River is more appealing than these shots make it out to be!
