Color photo. Grand Prismatic Spring in Yellowstone National Park. Its water shades from green at the bank, to teal, to a deep blue in the center. The bank is yellow at the water's edge, shading to orange and red further away. Streaks of this orange-red mud trail from the closest edge of the spring towards the bottom left of the photo. Along the top edge there is a wooden boardwalk, raised only inches above the muddy plain. Many people can be seen on it, admiring the spring.
