Can you help me name these geysers? I'm tagging them in my photo database and I'm about to hit 500 named features. OK, I must admit some are named Norris Feature A and West Thumb Feature C. :)
 
This one is behind Constant at Norris, if you are sitting on the bench on the boardwalk. I think it is Fireball, Pinto, or Arsenic?

Here's a photo of it erupting at the same time as Constant, to give some perspective:

This one is way back in the field behind Clepsydra. I took it from the boardwalk up on the hill just past the paint pots. I saw three eruptions about 10 minutes apart. They lastest - no kidding - about two seconds each. To get this shot, I held the camera on perched on my knee focused on just the right spot and pressed the shutter button when the thing erupted. Someone told me it might be Drain:

For fun, here are a few pictures I like from my trip this year:

Thanks -
