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.
The swimming pool at Villa Soledad Beach Resort
Escape the summer heat and soak at the blue waters
You can also visit the Hundred Islands
Visit Bolinao in Pangasinan, Philippines
Enjoy !
When things get to hot to handle, a dip in the pool should cool you off, unless things get hotter! ♥

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.
This guy hung around our pool for a few days when on holiday. I helped coax a few insects his way. I was sad when he went on his merry way after a few days! :)
These kids of mine were trying to kill each other and driving me crazy. So i had to get them outta the house... smh. Gladly no one was at the pool.
Eastern Box Turtle (Terrapene Carolina Carolina). Found this little girl in the pool trap. I took her out to the woods by stream where she didn’t have to be in chlorine.

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.

One of my goals during this trip to Grand Teton and Yellowstone was to mostly shoot it differently than the last trip, and reshoot some areas where I'm still trying to get the image I want. Along those lines, more time was spent at the geothermal pools. The color in and around these pools comes from the thermophiles, a form of extremophiles, that live and thrive on high temperatures. The colors of the thermophiles changes depending on how hot the pool is. When it's clear blue, it's too hot for anything to live. This is Abyss Pool at the West Thumb Geyser Basin. It's aqua blue is one of the prettiest in the park and a great contrast to the deep orange/brown of the surrounding thermophiles. Some clouds are reflecting in the thermophiles.

The Blue Pool at Pontsarn in the Brecon Beacons/Bannau Brycheiniog. Apparently a wild swimming spot but not the day I was there, the flow of the water was ferocious, although a couple of brave people did swim in the pool above the waterfall whilst I was there! The biggest challenge was keeping the camera dry given the amount of spray from the falling water.

6 vertical shots combined panorama taken at Porteau Cove Provincial Park near Squamish, BC. It was a low tide night revealing this night pool near the campground. walking along this night pool and take photos was a great experience.
The lights behind the mountain on the left is from Gibson, BC. And the lights on the right side is from Squamish.
Happy Window Wednesday! My son, granddaughter & I visited the Seal Sanctuary at Courtown. I had noted there was a leisure complex beside the sanctuary, so they packed their togs & towels. Nana was happy to watch.
This is the public viewing area overlooking the various swimming pools (through the glass to the left). The benches were not very comfy, so I didn't sit & watch them swimming for very long.
Photo 85/100 : My 100x photos this year will all feature benches or seats.
Second shot today from the Star Casino deck is a deep dive into the centre of Southbank Parklands which line the southern bank of the Brisbane River opposite the city itself. Up until the 1970's, this area of South Brisbane was one to be avoided if possible consisting of old, mostly abandoned warehouses and wharves, sleazy pubs and miscellaneous other businesses all left over, it felt from the 1890's! These were swept away by a basic park by the late 1970's although in this view you can see a couple of heritage buildings that were saved.
Then came World Expo '88 that transformed the area and started a complete renewal of most of the surrounding suburb which is now home to the Queensland Performing Arts Centre, a TAFE college and Griffith University, the ABC's Queensland base, The Exhibition Centre, the Queensland Museum, Library, Art Gallery and Gallery of Modern Art at the western end. These are mostly out of frame to the right. The pool(s) are basically the centre of Southbank Parklands. The line of low rise home units beyond the trees are bordered by Little Stanley and Grey Streets with the ground floor for the whole distance being a long line of very diverse restaurants.
Not many people on the beach the day this was shot back midweek in September . This spot on the river is about the centre of a large reverse S (from this side) as it meanders across its flood plain. And flood plain it literally is as both sides have been inundated to one degree or another in every major flood.
This area is served by South Brisbane railway station while the far eastern end including the Maritime Museum is adjacent to Southbank station.
