It's water birds at Feathery Friday this week. This is one of our Pilgrim geese enjoying a swim earlier this week..
Happy Feathery Friday everyone!
A hot spring in the Upper Geyser Basin at Yellowstone National Park. The distinct color of the pool is due to bacteria which inhabit the water. On a few occasions, Morning Glory Pool has erupted as a geyser, usually following an earthquake or other nearby seismic activity. Several entryways have been clogged due to objects being thrown in by tourists, reducing the hot water supply, and in turn altering the overall appearance of the pool. Several attempts by park officials to artificially induce eruptions to clear the pool of debris and clear blocked entryways have been met with mixed results. Due to the damage caused by ignorance and vandalism, it has been suggested that Morning Glory is becoming a "Faded Glory".
This was our first trip with digital cameras, almost 10 years ago. I am slowly adding photos to this album as time allows.
This is my final shot from the beach at Crayfish Creek. You can see the creek running into the ocean in the background. In the foreground is a shallow rock pool which reflects the stormy skies.
The mysterious Doxey Pool on The Roaches escarpment. The pool has several stories linked to it, one being that it is bottomless and linked by a subterranean tunnel to Blake Mere which is approx 2.5 miles away. Another is that its the home to a malignant mermaid called Jenny Greenteeth, who lured people into the water to their deaths. Maybe that's why the pool has been fenced off since my last visit a few yeara ago.
I have more of this fascinating swimming pool to add from our visit to Hearst Castle in San Simeon, California. It is the most striking outdoor pool I have ever seen. Easy to imagine movie stars such as Clark Gable and Marion Davies here.
Please do not throw things into these pools. Morning Glory Pool has been almost ruined with all the coins the garbage us humans have tossed into it. This is not Morning Glory Pool but I thought it might be appropriate to mention the problem.
I have always loved the colors in the geyser pools.
Located in the suburb of Maroubra is this magnificent ocean pool called Mahon. The tide was high and the sea swell the largest I've seen for some time over the coast. All images are available for print please message me for further details. www.benholmesphotography.com.au
Rock pool swimmers.
It is an iconic location that draws locals and visitors daily.
The ocean rock pool which is flushed by the incoming tides provide an ideal sanctuary for the early morning swimmers.

On Creag an Lòin, a minor outlier of the Monadhliath near Newtonmore. The western Cairngorms, including Sgòr Gaoith and Mullach Clach a' Bhlà ir are visible in the distance beyond Strathspey.
I’m feeling a bit out off sorts with photography at the moment. My last two outings with the camera have been with my OM camera’s, great for travelling light but I feel my photography suffers, maybe not in it’s imagery but definitely in my empathy for that image. This may be just my imagination or just the winter blues but being in the woods on Sunday primary using my Canon R5 with Benro tripod and geared head started the healing process again. While processing this photo of this quiet little pool I have experienced that inner peace I have with my work I’ve not felt in months. It’s not just the processing the image, I know when I took the photo I had it right, down to the correct polarisation of the pools reflection. I feel my light OM camera’s are great to take a photograph, ideal when the location, conditions and light briefly appear, but to make a photograph I have to slow down and it’s only when I’m purposely out with my FF Canon I do that.

Doublet Pool est une source chaude située dans le Upper Geyser Basin dans le parc national de Yellowstone aux États-Unis.
Doublet Pool fait 25 pieds (7,6 m) de long, 9 pieds (2,7 m) de large et 8 pieds (2,4 m) de profondeur et sa température est de 84,4 °C. Son bord festonné est fait de geyserite. Des éruptions peuvent se produire mais ne durent pas plus de 8 minutes. La source, sur la droite, entre en éruption environ toutes les 2 heures. Il y a parfois des vibrations, des mouvements d'onde à la surface, des bruits sourds ; ces effets sont causés par l'effondrement de bulles de gaz et de vapeur profondément dans la terre. On n'a pu observer que deux ou trois éruptions de Doublet Pool.
D'après diapositive de juillet 1985.
Morning Glory Pool is undoubtedly one of the highlights of the Upper Geyser Basin despite being less beautiful than it once was, since large amounts of rocks and trash have been thrown into the pool by thoughtless visitors, significantly reducing the water temperature. The pool used to be filled by rich blue water, with a narrow ring of orange-yellow bacteria only around the edge; now the water is more greenish and the algae band is much wider. The pool is 20 feet in diameter, 23 feet deep, round and symmetric, with a conical vent at the center, and may be viewed from a raised boardwalk that extends along nearly half its circumference. The spring drains westwards into the Firehole River, 100 feet away. It was named in 1883 for its resemblance in color and shape to the morning glory flower.
