Photographs of America's historic Yellowstone Park, world's first national park, famous for its grizzly bear and scenic mountains are up on display here.

The exhibition showcases the lush flora and fauna of the over 140-year-old park, which is primarily located in Wyoming but extends upto Montana and Idaho in the US.

It is popular not only for its wild animals but also geo-thermal features which includes the much-talked about 'Old Faithful Geyser'.

The photographs also capture the grizzly bears, wolves and the mountain features at the park which draw an estimated over 30 lakh visitors every year.

The park is said to be home to some 10,000 features with over 500 being water geysers.
 

The exhibition held at the AIFACS gallery between April 8-14 has been brought together and presented by IPS officer Somesh Goyal who works in Delhi.

The photographs put up in the exhibition have been shot by him during 2013-14.

Goyal, a 1984-batch officer of Himachal Pradesh cadre, had earlier showcased his photography skills in capturing the wildlife and also the Angkor Wat group of temples in Cambodia.
