I took this image in Yellowstone last week. It kinda made me feel like I was looking back into the past, to a prehistoric age. Thanks for looking, your feedback is appreciated.

Beautiful. The light plus the gold mirror effect bring me to think that it's a calm area but with an insecure feeling.

Great light and mood here Carey! The shadows look a little dark in the small version, but the detail is readily apparent in the large. Must have been a beautiful scene to witness in person!
