Sorry, I should have set the context here.
This is one of the many geysers mouths in Yellowstone National Park. They have beautiful colours and pattern at the edges of geyser. Based on the chemicals and micro organisms in each geyser colour vary from Deep blue, indigo blue to emerald green. Size of geyser mouth varies and can go up to 100ft or more wide. Steam keeps coming out from some of these less active geysers because of hot water and cold temperate outside.
This is not taken from air. This geyser is about 60ft wide, I was composing at front edge of geyser about 3ft above the ground and suddenly elks crossed in less than a minute at the other edge and I included them in the frame.
I will share some of other geyser images here. I MUST go to Yellowstone again by myself for pure photography.
