Grand Prismatic Spring, in the Midway Geyser Basin of Yellowstone National Park, is the largest hot spring in the United States, spanning roughly 370 feet. Its deep blue center comes from clear, very hot water that absorbs red light, while the yellow, orange, and red rings come from heat-loving microbial mats that thrive at different temperatures. This July 2001 view was made by Jim Peaco, a National Park Service photographer whose images document the park's features for public and research use.
