We had a wonderful long weekend getaway in Yellowstone National Park last week but it's taken me this long to go through the more than 400 pictures that I took. I put some more up on Flickr, but don't worry I just uploaded my favorites ;) This is a picture of my favorite geyser - Grotto Geyser - I love how it's all slightly out of focus. It looks great in black and white too.

We are walking up to Grand Geyser here.
As I approached Grand Geyser, this formation on the edge of the vent reminded me of The Thinker by Rodin; what do you think?

We saw bison everywhere. Here's everyone, except my daughter and I, taking pictures.
This gorgeous canyon has the Yellowstone River at the bottom. This area is called Artists' Point and we arrived just before sunset.
A lovely blue haze along the edge of a hot spring.
We saw lots of wildlife including bugling elk, a coyote, deer, bison, and a grizzly bear! This was the best shot I could get at dusk with a 48x zoom but we were thrilled we got to see a bear at all.
