Judges' comments:
Lots of impact; sky is nice; the geysers compete for attention; the water glitters in stop action; could crop to eliminate walkway; consider lightening some of the darker areas
Maker's notes:
This image was shot in Yellowstone National Park on 8/7/2022 at 6 PM. It was purposely shot at 6 PM to have shadows in the foreground. Camera was a Canon 7D Mark II with Canon 18-135mm lens set to 18mm. Was set in Aperture Priority mode at f/9 and ISO 500, resulting in a shutter speed of 1/250th sec. to freeze the water motion. Post processed in Lightroom and Photoshop, printed from Photoshop.
