Path needs to be lightened up a bit. I'd bring out the green in the shadows some more. And probably a slight vignette in the upper corners. But I do like the shot. You've got a good eye.

Was looking to change the desktop wallpaper and decided on this one:




Been to Yellowstone twice, and we've probably driven across this bridge a dozen times and I never stopped to fish here. Seems like a mistake.

Is that the Snake?

It's the Yellowstone River crossing under the NE Entrance Road. The bridge was supposed to be replaced, but after that road got destroyed by the flooding in several spots, I have no idea how the bridge replacement was impacted.

So did you do any fishing on that trip?

I've only been to Yellowstone once and it was a looong time ago. My grandfather took me and I kinda tried to fish but didn't catch anything. I can't even remember if we were on the Yellowstone or the Snake...
Spoiler:
It was 38 years ago and my grandfather wasn't really a fisherman so we winged it with my little spincast setup, a plastic bubble, and who knows what kind of fly.

Yeah, the trip that included the bridge photo was the same one with the pronghorn and the update in the old fly fishing thread that I never open now because it's been moved to the lounge. Caught a couple of nice cutthroat in Slough Creek, which is kind of a bucket list item, especially for someone of my limited ability.

The previous trip was what got me into fly fishing in the first place because it's more or less the only way to go in the park, and I was happy to catch anything, including something like a 5-6" brown in the Gibbon.

Going back and rereading that thread was a nice look back from more or less complete noob to, well, slightly less of a noob because I'm not spey casting for salmon or bull trout and am not able to drop a size 24 dry on a 7x tippet in one cast over a finicky trout in a spring creek, but I now feel like I have a decent chance whenever we venture somewhere where I can wet a line.

I'll let others guess where these photos were taken.

in all seriousness that looks pretty dope, very jealous

i've heard that floating lake isn't as impressive in person because you need to see it from a very specific angle in order to see it that way

any truth to that?

IMO, there is no angle where it actually appears to float. The spot where I took the picture is probably as close to making it appear that way as you can get.

The area that you hike around in order to get to that photo spot is spectacular, although not the most spectacular in the area.

Are you currently on the trip, or revisiting awesome photos?

If the former, continued safe travels and have fun!
