Artist's Description
This is, of course, the Grand Prismatic Spring at Yellowstone National Park.
As I was joined by a small group of people attempting to capture some magic at sunset, here, a young mom, who clearly had endured a long day with her very young kids in tow asked me, "Why isn't it as colorful in person?"
I explained that the colors here typically pop during the height of the day, because of the way the mineral deposits catch the light, and that photographers in the evening rely on much longer shutter speeds to allow for the color to saturate their images.

About ProPeak Photography
My goal has always been to capture moments that inspire me so that I can share them with others. I have been fortunate to have several selections of my work recognized in print and in competition. I am predominantly drawn to images of beautiful landscapes, glorious sunrises and sunsets, impressive cities, impressive architecture and feats of engineering, and awe-inspiring nature. I try to remain faithful to the moments I have experienced, with only 'natural' enhancements in post-processing, though you will also find monochromatic images here. I hope that the moments I share here speak to you. I am open to suggestions, ideas, and feedback you might have about future content offerings. Dan
