Gentian Pool. Yellowstone National Park. Wyoming.

Aerial view of Gentian Pool, showing brightly-colored bacteria matts growing on the alkali soils around the geothermal feature in Yellowstone National Park’s Lower Geyser Basin. Wyoming. I had incorrectly named this hot pool as Obsidian Spring in my initial jpg submission to the competition. I took the picture from a Cesssna 172 fixed wing aircraft.
