The Morning Glory Pool is one of the most amazing hot spring, located on the upper Geyser Basin of Yellowstone NP.
A pool at Yellowstone National Park. A beautiful pool, that apparently has lost some of its beauty secondary to people tossing coins into the pool. God sent His Son to save us, I hope we never forget that gift!! Thanks for stopping by and God Bless!!
Champagne Pool is a prominent geothermal feature within the Waiotapu geothermal area in the North Island of New Zealand. The terrestrial hot spring is located about 30 km southeast of Rotorua and about 50 km northeast of Taupo. The name Champagne Pool is derived from the abundant efflux of carbon dioxide (CO2), similar to a glass of bubbling champagne. The hot spring was formed 900 years ago by a hydrothermal eruption. Its crater is around 65 m (213 ft) in diameter with a maximum depth of approximately 62 m (203 ft) and is filled with an estimated volume of 50,000 m3 (1,800,000 cu ft) of geothermal fluid.

AT THE POOL
Happiness was a day at a pool
in the grass ringed round
with trees up to the sky
here I was god’s and my
grandpa’s lad – both died,
happiness is dangerous
in the evening the pool has lain down
so mirror-smooth that sky, trees and grass
repeat themselves below the ground
fear and longing both ask me
to come back

One of the many geothermal jewels in Yellowstone's West Thumb Geyser Basin. Abyss is the deepest pool known in Yellowstone and received its name for its abyss-like depth.
West Thumb Geyser Basin is one of the smallest geyser basins in Yellowstone yet its location along the shore of Yellow-stone Lake ranks it as the most scenic.
One of the deeper hot springs in the park, Abyss Pool descends to 53 feet (16 meters). It varies from turquoise blue to emerald green to various shades of brown.
Hope your week is off to a great start!

Hurricane Fiona devastated much of the Canadian Maritime provinces, including my beloved summer home of the past thirty plus years, Prince Edward Island. Lots of property damage either by wind or storm surge. Still waiting to hear about my cottage and just hoping for the best. Fortunately so far, it sounds like no one was killed or severely injured, which is the best news in all of this. Unlike people, stuff can be replaced.
Backyard Pool it has been a wet week, several inches in the last 3-4 days, I hope the birds clean it out, shot in North Carolina.

Le Morning Glory Pool (« bassin de la belle-de-jour » en anglais) est une source chaude située dans le Upper Geyser Basin dans le parc national de Yellowstone aux États-Unis.
La couleur de la source chaude est due à des micro-organismes vivant dans l'eau et sur le tapis bactérien recouvrant les surfaces du bassin. Avant les années 1960, la source était uniquement d'un bleu profond. Avec le temps, sa couleur a évolué pour prendre des couleurs jaune et verte brillantes.
Récemment, un groupe de chercheurs a déterminé que l'être humain est responsable de cette transition. En effet, les objets lancés dans la source par les touristes, tels que des pièces, des pierres, des bouts de bois, etc., ont fini par bloquer partiellement l'arrivée d'eau chaude du bassin. Ceci a fait diminuer la température de l'eau et sa faune microscopique a changé en conséquence. Les micro-organismes plus récents produisent des pigments jaunes, verts et orange vifs.
Quant à la transition de couleur observée dans le bassin, qui passe du vert au centre vers l'orangé en périphérie, il est dû à des variations de température de l'eau à l'intérieur de celui-ci, car l'eau a tendance à être plus chaude au centre de la source, accueillant alors des organismes différents. Des effets d'optique sont également responsables des couleurs observées par les visiteurs : la profondeur de l'eau influence en effet la perception des couleurs.
Les responsables du parc ont à plusieurs reprises tenté de déclencher artificiellement des éruptions pour débarrasser la source de ses débris. Une pancarte, placée près de la source par la direction du parc, montre les dégâts causés par l'ignorance et le vandalisme, et suggère que Morning Glory est en train de devenir Faded Glory (littéralement, une « gloire passée »).
À quelques rares occasions, la Morning Glory Pool a fait éruption en geyser, souvent à la suite d'un séisme ou d'autres événements sismiques à proximité.
D'après diapositive de juillet 1985.
With the sun setting in front of me, I liked this composition and the reflections in the pool water.
Late night upload!
