We had only one colorful sunrise in Yellowstone National Park last week when the temperatures hovered below zero and the skies were clear. On our last day, a few clouds formed in the skies, portending the storms predicted for the weekend. As the sky turned red, we stopped at a pullout along the Madison River. The colorful sunrise lasted mere minutes and when we walked a few feet further to get more of the river into the photograph, the color disappeared. I was lucky to get the few shots that I did. It was colorful enough to reflect a bit of color in the water as the steam rose into the frigid air.
