Steam rising from a geyser
Geyser. View of steam rising from a geyser in Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming, USA. Geysers consist of deep natural wells in geothermal rock fissures. Somewhere near the base of the well is a large chamber. The water in the chamber is heated by the surrounding rocks until it is well over its normal boiling point, but is prevented from boiling by hydrostatic pressure. The heating also causes the water to expand, spilling from the lip of the well. At a critical point, the loss of water allows the hydrostatic pressure to fall to a point where the superheated water boils spontaneously and erupts

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the mesmerizing sight of steam rising from a geyser in Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming, USA. The image showcases the raw power and natural beauty of geothermal activity found within this iconic national park. Geysers are formed by deep natural wells in geothermal rock fissures, with a large chamber somewhere near their base. As the surrounding rocks heat up the water in this chamber, it reaches temperatures well above its normal boiling point but remains prevented from boiling due to hydrostatic pressure. This process also causes the water to expand until it spills over the lip of the well. At a critical moment, when enough water is lost and hydrostatic pressure decreases, the superheated water finally boils spontaneously and erupts into an awe-inspiring display. In this photograph, we witness that magical instant when nature's forces converge to create a breathtaking spectacle. Yellowstone National Park is renowned for its incredible geothermal features like geysers and hot springs. It serves as a reminder of Earth's dynamic nature and offers us glimpses into its hidden depths. This particular image not only showcases Yellowstone's unique geological wonders but also highlights how science can capture these extraordinary moments through photography. With every eruption captured on film or printed onto paper like this one from Science Photo Library, we are reminded of our planet's immense power and boundless beauty that continues to inspire both scientists and nature enthusiasts alike.
