4 Corners Tour USA 2011
Old Faithful After Dark.
When we got to Old Faithful the sun had already set and the last of the twilight was dimming rapidly.
We checked the lodge and there was about 45 more minutes until the next Old Faithful eruption.
As the time approached it got darker and darker until eventually when we realized that a photo of the geyser in action was not possible. Our flashed were not powerful enough to have any effect.
So I adjusted my camera settings to long exposure and set my camera down on a bench and angled it at Old Faithful and took a shot in the dark at what the outcome might be.
I was pretty thrilled with the result.
