Falling Water in the Land of Yellow Stone

            Lower Falls, Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone, Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming

I wasn't planning on visiting Yellowstone (my last visit here was when I was 14!) as I didn't have the time to do it justice, but after spending the morning and early afternoon photographing the Tetons, I suddenly decided to drive here to photograph the falls.  It was quite a bit further away than I had thought, so in retrospect, I should have stayed in the Tetons--especially since the next day, that I'd planned on catching the Tetons at sunrise, was washed out with low clouds and rain that totally obscured them.  Oh well.

It was actually early dusk by the time I reached this point, though it doesn't appear that way.  My battery went dead just before I took this, and since I had fried my backup, I had to run back to my car and charge it up . . . except I fortunately didn't have to.  A fellow Nikon photographer on the scene happened to be using a camera with the same battery needs as mine, and he had a spare that he was kind enough to loan me.

The weather was terrible--cold, sprinkling, and a fierce wind that made it difficult to hold the camera steady.  We persevered. :-)   One day, I'd like to spend at least a week in Yellowstone.  Of course, I'd also like to spend a week (or month or two) in Portugal, or Sicily, or Brazil--not to mention India, Egypt, Hungary, Israel/Gaza, Kenya, Madagascar, Peru, Mexico, Ukraine, Cuba, Turkey, Japan, Taiwan, Hawaii, Australia, New Zealand, Scandanavia, Antartica, and at least 5 dozen other places.
