Photograph of a man fishing in the middle of the Firehole River in Yellowstone National Park. Overgrown grasses line the bank of the Firehole River in the lower left corner. The river occupies most of the width of the bottom edge of the image as it flows towards the horizon on an upward angle from right to left. In the distance at center, a man wades in the middle of the river to fish. Tall pines line both banks of the river as it extends into the distance.
