I arrived at this location at dusk and managed to capture this image with the rocks warmed but the last of the sunset sky. This Iconic image of Yellowstone National park was top of my 'must dos for Yellowstone" and it did not disappoint. I also attempted sunrise and another sunset that were not as rewarding - timing is everything. #Adventure #yellowstone #sunset #Artists #point Nikon D850 24-120mm @120mm, F13, ISO 31, 10sec.
