I agree Chris, we could all do with more open space therapy but think we' ll have accept less in the future

Excellent Puffin photography Keith. Just explained to Mrs T the finer points of bird photography using this as a fantastic example on how it should be done !! . We were both disappointed not to have made it to the Farne islands ( choppy seas) missing out on seeing these beautiful birds

Thanks Adrian, thats what i thought, there are a lot of people unaware of this rare species

Excellent composition and choice of shutter speed Andy, you've even got some decent weather

Love the ghost trees through the rising steam John.
Yellowstone has plenty of stand and stare moments for me, especially when i see 40 + year old dead trees that have died through increasing ground temperatures.
This was my second visit to Yellowstone, the first being in 2012, on both occasions stopped three nights at the Old Faithful Inn. It was an absolute amazing experience walking around these steaming vents around 5am, some mornings the whole valley was a mist of steam, Bison and elk came closer keeping me company on the boardwalks.

I did notice an increase in ghost trees on my second visit, its only a matter of time

Top drawer, Thank you Andy

Yeah Ron, they always seem to be centre of attention
