Thanks, Gabe.

The following shot is of a baby blob. It's only about 25 - 30 feet tall and is just commencing to gobbling up its surroundings.

You would have been in hog heaven here, David. The sulphur smell was quite pronounced.. I wasn't aware of any heat coming off this thing. It was a cold-ass day and I was bundled up appropriately. I think my face, though, would have picked up any heat and I don't remember that it did.

Great captures Tom, wonderful textures and colors. When did you visit Yellowstone?

It's sure great to hear from you, Phil. I've been wondering what you are up to these days, I spent two weeks in the Yellowstone area four years ago and then again two years ago. I just found a misplaced camera card from the last trip that had these images on it. I've been trying to structure another trip out there for next year but if I can't pull that off during the first two weeks after the park opens, I won't go. Once the hoards of folks show up there, the fun factor fades rapidly. I hope you are doing well, buddy.

Last year was a bit tumultuous. Family, Covid, completing the final collection of A.P.s, and paying taxes for the closing of our company! We did manage to get out on the road for a fall rip, but my camera went on the fritz almost immediately but I did have my trusty cell phone and will post some images soon. I understand your feelings regarding the hoards, we avoid the summer season also. Our favorite time is late
September early October.

Tom....

Very interesting images and presentation of same.

Had you not been in Yellowstone one could see similar sights in ice fields and glacier flows. The colors are intriguing as well.

Glad you found that misplaced camera card and were able to post these.

" I love the smell of sulphur in the morning " .

I don't know why but that quote makes me think of a quote issued by Robert Duval in the movie 'Apocalypse Now'.........".I love the smell of napalm in the morning ".
