Disney Animal Kingdom’s Dinosaur

The area around the Disney’s Animal Kingdom Dinosaur attraction is notoriously dark, which would normally put a damper on nighttime photography. After all, what’s the point if there isn’t cool illumination on the subject? Then I noticed the beautiful stars and decided that I could use the darkness to my advantage. So I set up for a minute-plus long exposure and captured some (slight) star trails. I thought it was fitting given the nature of the attraction.

Technical details: tripod-mounted Nikon D7000 with Rokinon 8mm Fisheye Lens. See our guide for more photography equipment recommendations.
