  • What a dramatic shot! The dark clouds over the lake really make it feel like the storm is about to roll in at any moment. I especially like how the calm water contrasts with the threatening sky. Yellowstone must be an incredible place for photographing changing weather.

    • Thanks! Yes, the weather conditions are constantly changing there. It's one of my favorite places on earth. 🙂

  • That cloud bank sitting right down on the water is exactly what Yellowstone Lake does on an afternoon - beautiful from a distance and slightly alarming if you are still out on it. In monochrome the weather becomes the whole subject. Wordless was the right call here.
