The job of a photographer isn't to create an image, but to discover it and then capture it in a pleasing way. The job of an artist is to create. So, what happens when you combine the two? You end up with filters on photo software. I recently featured...

Last time, I shared some of the more random photos from my time at Thermopolis. Today, I share with you some of the amazing mineral deposits that come off these hot springs. I find them very odd and almost other-worldly. By and large, the "smudges" n...
