Steam rises from a hot spring while a man in a hat stands at its edge, a figure that gives the scale of the landscape around him. Yellowstone's thermal features drew early visitors and photographers, and images like this one helped show the American public a place of geysers, boiling pools and mineral terraces that seemed almost unreal. Pictures from this period often included a person for scale, which makes this view worth a closer look at how steam, ground and visitor fit together.
