Byriah was very kind and shared the diagrams for this kusudama with me, and I love it! It has unusual angles which makes it interesting and sets it apart from other modular models, and it works great with five colours :)
Thanks Byriah!
Geysers are hot springs that episodically erupt columns of water. They occur in few places on Earth. The highest concentration of geysers anywhere is at the Yellowstone Hotspot Volcano (northwestern Wyoming, USA).
Excelsior Geyser is the namesake of the Excelsior Group of Yellowstone’s Midway Geyser Basin. Its basin has an irregular shape, with the longest dimension of the water-filled portion about 110 meters and the greatest width almost 80 meters. A jagged cliff borders most of Excelsior’s basin. Two major runoff channels drain to the north and northeast, into the Firehole River. Over 4,000 gallons of hot water are discharged every minute (see Bryan, 2018 - The Geysers of Yellowstone, Fifth Edition). Excelsior experienced very large eruptions in the 1870s, 1880s, and 1890s, followed by more or less permanent dormancy to the present day. Eruptive activity also occurred in 1985 and 2000.
Filmed from the Midway Geyser Basin boardwalk & along the Firehole River & atop Midway Bluff (pre-closure).

An R1114 dating from 1976. This lone OPR registration was surrounded by the traditional large quantities of Fords with registration batches of MRU and SEL.
Far back in time, this building was once a pub, latterly an adult shop and now condemned as a result of the expansion of Tottenham Court Road station for Crossrail. It sits alongside the Astoria, also due to be demolished.
Address: 167 Charing Cross Road (formerly Crown Street).
Former Name(s): The King's Head.

Canadian Transit Heritage Foundation managed to arrange a tour of the New Flyer production facility in Winnipeg before the D40 charter. Here is a shot of an Excelsior shell. One of the ones being built was a Winnipeg unit. It's possible it's this one.
Antigo Hotel Excelsior, na avenida Getúlio Vargas, Cuiabá. Estava a anos abandonado, mas está sendo reformado para voltar a funcionar como hotel.
À direita dele está a prefeitura, à esquerda de onde eu tirei a foto, deste lado da avenida, está a catedral).
Volvo B10M / Plaxton Paramount III C53F. The road from Llandudno Junction to Conwy (with the famous Castle behind me) travels above the Crosville Wales depot from which many a photo has been taken. Seen in April 1987 and almost certainly on a holiday tour is Dorset-based D258HFX, a brand new Volvo B10M of Excelsior.
This is just a small slice of the rim of the large geothermal feature known as Excelsior Geyser, or Excelsior Crater, famous for the prolific outflow of water from what was once an active geyser with explosive 300-foot eruptions. Excelsior Geyser's once exceptional activity created the wide, deep crater it is today, but by 1890 it had quit. Since then was mostly a quiescent spring-like formation until suddenly, in in 1985, it pushed up a 50-75-foot column of water. It now puts out more than 4,000 gallons of boiling hot water *per minute* resulting in a large volume of colorful runoff that pours into the adjacent Firehole River. It is essentially a spring, after the explosive eruptions of the 19th century destroyed the patency of its underground "plumbing" such that very hot water rising from deep within the earth is no longer under substantial pressure.
The National Park Service explains the gorgeous blue color:
"Water temperatures within some springs exceed the boiling point. The intense blue color of some springs results when sunlight passes into their deep, clear waters. Blue, a color visible in light, is scattered the most and the color we see. "
