21st Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
Lone tree in Yellowstone

This photo is one of a series of "Solitary Trees" in Yellowstone. Inspired by the diversity and shape of the trees in the park, I decided to look out for those that are isolated from the rest. The photo was taken in the lower Mammoth Hot Springs Terrace. Here I was intrigued by the colors, the steam as well as the mystery of the place.
