Photographer’s Note
I do not expect that this picture would get high points, but the place is interesting!
The picture shows wigs of spruce under the water of powerful spring. The needles are covered with sulphur. This is sulphuric spring near Kemeri resort with poverful healing properties. Unfortunately today the healing power of these springs is almost not used.
The sulphur here is created in very rare geological process of cold sulphuric genesis by specific bacteria. In the springs there are living colonies of rare microorganisms.

You have captured the sulphur very well. Great note. I've learned something new from this photo.
