Exploding Mud Pots - Wai-O-Tapu, Rotorua, New Zealand

 The exploding mud pots of Wai-O-Tapu are fascinating and stinky!


 They seem to have a rhythm to their gurgles and pops...


 We walked around the area as far as the trail would allow us to go.





 We tried to catch the mud in mid-air as it popped...gotta be quick!


 Mother Nature is AMAZING!


 There seems to be a little more green on this side.


 Some pretty blue hues, too!








Fascinating...


 ...now for some close-ups back at the original viewpoint...trying to catch the 'pop'!





 So unpredictable!


 But, always changing...











 A little more drama here!





wOw!  STINKY!
