点评:Old Faithful gets its name because of the regularity of its eruptions. So the park is able to fairly predict when the next eruption is, and when you walk into the visitor center they have the time posted. When we arrived, it showed that it would be erupting in approximately 10 minutes, so we went straight out to the geyser site. There were already at least 100 other people there, if not more, so you need to understand this is not something you'll be doing without tons of people around. When the geyser starts to erupt, everybody jumps to their feet and holds out their cameras so unless you get a real clear angle, you will have lots of other people in your shot. The geyser erupts for approximately three-four minutes, so as you manage to take shots of the eruption itself, you do have time to turn it around and grab a few selfies with the eruption. It is very cool to see, despite all the people around, so I wouldn't skip it. It is just part of the whole Yellowstone experience!
翻译:老忠实泉之所以得名,是因为它喷发的规律性。因此,公园能够比较准确地预测下一次喷发的时间,游客中心门口就贴着喷发时间的告示。我们到达时,告示显示大约10分钟后就会喷发,于是我们直接去了喷泉附近。那里至少已经有100多人了,甚至可能更多,所以你要做好心理准备,这里人山人海,很难独自欣赏。当喷泉开始喷发时,所有人都会立刻站起来,举起相机,所以除非你能找到一个非常清晰的角度,否则你的照片里肯定会混入很多人。喷泉喷发大约持续三到四分钟,所以当你拍到喷发的画面时,你还有时间转身和喷泉自拍几张。尽管周围人很多,但亲眼目睹喷发仍然非常震撼,所以我建议不要错过。这可是黄石公园之旅不可或缺的一部分!
