Your first photo is sideways. Try again.
Love your first picture.
Heart Spring and Lion Geyser, on the Upper Geyser Basin in Yellowstone Park, not far from Old Faithful. I lived and worked there for over three years.
Good for you! Love the second picture.
Sadly, we're in that phase where it isn't pretty. We had snow a few days ago, now it has melted down and it's just drab and dirty now. I love the colors in your pictures. The blue of the mountains and the pink of the sky are just breathtaking.
@LiterateHiker That is gorgeous, breathtaking.
@LiterateHiker beautiful pic
Darn it! when I edited my comment, the photo was deleted. Try again.

As the sun descended in the west behind the Cascade foothills, the foothills turn a deep blue.
In summer, we get a Maxfield Parrish deep blue sky with black foothills outlined. Gorgeous! Then an hour-and-a-half of cooler temperatures before dark.
Here's sunrise in Wenatchee, WA where I live, January 2018, again looking west. Wenatchee River flows from the Cascade Mountains into the Columbia River.
@LiterateHiker hmmm... live a few miles from where Maxfield Parish lived. Those mountains are majestic.
Beautiful colors in the landscape scene!
Thank you. The photo was taken at sunset.
@LiterateHiker I was looking at the colors when driving home yesterday, thinking how bright they were. I was reminded again that Ansel Adams took almost all his pictures close to dawn or sunset
