Yellowstone National Park. There is nothing quite like it on earth. Everyone has a favorite National Park and it may be Yellowstone. All the National Parks have their own beauty.

Most of these pictures were taken in September, 2005. At the time I had gone digital and was using a Nikon D70 camera and an 18-70mm zoom lens. There are a couple of pictures (at Great Fountain Geyser) that were taken in 2009. I've noted those pictures.

Enjoy !

These pictures were taken on our first day in the park:

Ok, this isn't Sponge Geyser. I can't remember the name of the spring, but it is colorful and that is why I included it.
