Yellowstone is full of dramatic light at the beginning and end of each when you're anywhere near the many geo-thermal areas. The difficulty is capturing the wonderful color and the structure of the subjects when the light is so awesome. Sometimes, it's simply a matter of shooting a lot of images and picking the right one later on. That's what I did here.

 

I shot dozens and dozens of images and only picked two as being worthwhile. There are a lot of nuances that makes this image work for me I would've missed if I didn't shoot many many frames of the same scene. In other words, shooting lots works.

 

Cheers

 

Tom
