One more photo from Yellowstone National Park trip - Eruption of Old Faithful Geyser. Eruption was so strong that take most space on photo with wide angle lens. Dew was so big after eruption that it took some time to heat the lens to start photography again after that photo.

Do you believe that the Milky Way was not created by a geyser?

Old Faithful Geyser located in Yellowstone National Park,
Wyoming. Green colors of sky near horizon also does not result of the geyser, this is sky Airglow.

There are a lot of legends about origin of the Milky Way all over the Word. Every culture spoke about the Milky Way in terms of allegories that have special meaning to each individual culture. Definitely it should be legend about Milky Way from Yellowstone. However Yellowstone was very special land for Native Americans and they don’t trust white people and don’t like that they know about it. So only little Yellowstone myths we know now. Last year my daughter learned about Native American and I asked her to write the “missing” legend about geyser and the Milky Way. There is the legend.
The geyser, crow, corn, and the Milky Way
During fall the Native Americans were harvesting corn. One day a crow came, it wanted back some of the corn it gave to the Native Americans. It kept stealing the corn until the village made noise shakers and scared the crow away. While the crow was flying away holding corn in its beak, a geyser erupted and the corn kernels flew out of the crow’s beak. The crow chased it into the sky. From this day forward the corn kernels became the stars, and the dust has become the Milky Way.
Pretty much it is very close to what you see on picture above.
Interesting, recently, astronomers founded giant geysers in the center of our Galaxy. So such legend about connection the Milky Way and geysers even make sense but only on other level of understanding of the nature.
There is supervolcano night sky video on youtube. A supereruption of Yellowstone volcano will affect all word. Nobody knows when it happens. Geyser eruptions show that the Yellowstone giant volcano is still active, it just sleeping under wide and starry sky.
There are astrophotos from my trip to Yellowstone national
park. During this time weather was not good, totally cloudy and most of the time it was
raining. Just last night for couple of hours sky all the sudden was clear and I
was happy and get chance to made couples of photos. In the morning was rain
again. So I really was lucky to made Yellowstone astrophotography. The sky in Yellowstone is amazing. It is really one of the darkness place which I saw. All photos
were done by Canon 60Da camera with Canon Lens EF
16-35mm f2.8L II USM Ultra Wide.
