I stumbled onto this on my way to Canary Spring at Mammoth Hot Springs and couldn't believe my eyes. What a great way to start the day.

Nice and moody!
I'd add a bit of midtone contrast though, for more punch?

What Morkel said, but maybe only needed on the lower half?

Nice atmosphere with the rising steam.

Nice arabesque rising from the mist -- well seen!

Absolutely love this. The steam with the light gently hitting it really makes this one.

Midtone contrast is already increased. I even had some more in it, but reduced it again because it started to look "clinical". I wanted it to look peaceful, not punchy.
