When we were at Epcot last week, it was apparent that the park was already preparing for Epcot’s Flower & Garden Festival. The patch of grass near the Imagination pavilion that normally has a beautifully themed flower bed during Flower & Garden Festival was torn up, with markers and outlines of a design in the
Mission: SPACE is an attraction in the Future World land of Epcot at Walt Disney World in Florida. It’s a 5.5 minute motion simulator ride that demonstrates what an astronaut might experience on a space flight to Mars. It’s set in the fictional International Space Training Center, which is similar to NASA. Since opening in
As we were passing through this area of the Magic Kingdom early Tuesday morning on our way to Splash Mountain, this fountain caught my eye. It has long been one of my favorite Walt Disney World water fixtures, but it’s difficult to photograph because there are always so many people and strollers in this area
It’s little secret that the original Journey into Imagination is my all-time favorite Walt Disney World attraction. Without it, you wouldn’t be reading this blog (because it wouldn’t exist), and it’s highly unlikely that Sarah and I would take so many trips to Walt Disney World as adults. The entire pavilion oozed of (as cliche
As I mentioned in my recent review of the book Gardens of Walt Disney World Resort, I love the greenery and details at Walt Disney World. From topiaries to trees that are unordinary and different from what you’d see in the real world, I enjoy it all. It should be no surprise that I really
With the morning dew still on this flower in the Magic Kingdom’s Rose Garden as the sun rose early on December 30, 2011, all was quiet and serene in this little corner of Walt Disney World. In only a few short hours, the park would be filled with people, on what was one of the
Thanks to the perimeter bursts, the Walt Disney World 40th anniversary showing of Wishes on October 1, 2011 was easily the best showing of Wishes we had ever experienced. The energy from the crowd that entire day was palpable, and it was great to spend the day with so many others who cared so deeply
Although it’s a pretty basic off the shelf attraction, Disney California Adventure’s Golden Zephyr is a fun attraction, and is a photographer’s delight. In the afternoon you can achieve shots like this the the Golden Zephyr speeding past a blurred Mickey’s Fun Wheel, and in the evening you can capture the motion of the lights
Walt Disney World’s Fantasy in the Sky fireworks show for New Year’s Eve (and New Year’s Eve Eve) was the most impressive show I’ve ever seen from a pyro-perspective. We viewed this show both nights from the Top of the World Lounge at Bay Lake Tower, which is probably the ultimate viewing-spot, as it puts
Not really a Super Bowl photo, but what better way to celebrate the Super Bowl than with a fireworks photo?! Who will be saying “I’m going to Disney World” tonight in Indianapolis? This city loves the Mannings, and many here are hoping to see Eli win another ring. I actually like both the Patriots and
This “fan” burst that appears in pretty much every Magic Kingdom style fireworks show is one of the most iconic and photogenic fireworks bursts. Sure, it’s not as awe-inspiring as seeing the grand finale in person, but this couple-second burst photographs much better than a grand finale, and is also fun to see fired off!
