Alan Barrett Images | The Bigger Picture | Mammoth Hot Springs


The terraces along the hot springs of this well-known area of Yellowstone National Park are a constant joy to the photographer. I have been fortunate to visit the area on a number of occasions. I have to admit that recent changes to the direction of flow of the springs, caused by recent earthquake activity, has meant that the spring run-offs are not as dramatic as I recall from my first visit, but it is still a lovely place to visit.
