Disney’s Animal Kingdom is peaceful at night. Some places are so dark, devoid of people, and detailed that you wouldn’t even believe you’re in a theme park. This area of Asia, for example, made me feel like I was actually in a remote area, gazing at a mountain off in the distance. No one was
I’ve done a lot of different perspectives for monorail photos at Epcot, but I had never photographed this one until our February 2012 Walt Disney World trip, nor had I seen anyone else photograph this perspective. I had to get low to the flower bed for this view and wait a few minutes for the
I’ve already shared several of my photos from this rainy night at Epcot, including this photo of Spaceship Earth that several others called my best photo of Spaceship Earth ever. While I like that shot a lot, I wouldn’t call it my best ever, or even best Spaceship Earth photo of that particular evening. The
When we first arrived at Walt Disney World on our last trip, it was pouring. Epcot was only open for another two hours that night when we arrived at our hotel, Disney’s BoardWalk Inn. Most people would reaction to these two facts by skipping the park that night, not wanting to spend only a small
When Robert Sherman passed away on March 5, 2012, there was a general sense of loss in not just the Disney community, but in the world in general. People who aren’t Disney fans may not have known him by name, but everyone could certainly recognize him by sound, as he and his brother wrote (literally)
Ahhh, the “Disney Details.” These are what separates Disney theme parks from the competition, and are a big reason why Sarah and I love returning to the parks. They’re the little things that are overlooked by 99% of guests, but that add such a rich layer to the theme park experience. Sometimes, they exist to
“One More Disney Day” at Disneyland was a fast paced day. Just look at this photo of Splash Mountain–even the clouds were moving fast! By this point in the evening, the crowds had really descended upon Disneyland, and most attractions had incredibly long waits. Of the E-Ticket attractions, Splash Mountain was the notable exception to
One “One More Disney Day” at Disneyland, the blooming trees and flowers were so gorgeous, and fragrant, that they stole the show from the normally stare-inducing Sleeping Beauty Castle. For this photo, I deliberately made “Disneyland in Bloom” the subject of the shot, with only a hint of that beautiful, quaint Castle in the distant
There was no better place to be than the hub on “One More Disney Day” at Disneyland. Seeing all of the excited faces as they came to get their photos next to Partners as the sun rose was an interesting experience, and there was definitely a palpable energy and excitement in this area as the
I’m beginning to run out of superlatives to describe my “One More Disney Day” Disneyland sunrise experience, but I think it’s worth reiterating that it was an amazing morning. Although I spent most of my time running around like a madman trying to capture as many photos as possible of the fleeting sunlight, some of
Sunrise at the end of “One More Disney Day” at Disneyland was beautiful. For a few minutes the sun lit up some low clouds to the south of the park, and although they were difficult to incorporate in photos, they made for a beautiful sight. Walt and Mickey sure had a great view of the
