I know a lot of people are going to be visiting Disneyland for the first time during the D23 Expo, so here’s a photo of three of my favorite rides at Disneyland. Two of the attractions are quite underrated. The third is an undeniable E-Ticket most people can easily name that will be closed for
Upon first viewing, this looks just like any normal shot taken of Cinderella Castle from the Liberty Square Bridge (Kodak Photo Spot). It’s a pretty plain Castle shot, right? If you look closer, or compare it to a normal shot taken from this location, you’ll notice that Cinderella Castle appears far smaller, and the moat
If you’ve viewed many of my photos, you’re no doubt aware that I love capturing the tranquility of the parks at night. While Tomorrowland is my favorite place to photograph at night due to its ambiance, Frontierland takes the tranquility crown. At night, it really captures the true spirit of the American West. In fact,
Aren’t the Disney Details one of the biggest things that compel all of us to return to the Disney theme parks so frequently? We all have our favorite attractions, to be sure, but the Disney Details, like this small bronze statue of Pluto found in the Magic Kingdom’s hub, make the parks rife for exploration.
Wishes! A Magical Gathering of Disney Dreams is an excellent fireworks show that is a must-see if you’re in the Magic Kingdom at night.

As children, the Dumbo the Flying Elephant attraction at Disneyland and the Magic Kingdom in Walt Disney World is one of those attractions we must do. We soar high, flying with Dumbo as he flaps his ears in the breeze. As we grow older, the illusion and the magic wears off. With a little photographic
From the moment the lights go down, the excitement from the crowd for the Main Street Electrical parade grows. It reaches a fever pitch when you begin to hear the strangely addictive sounds of the Baroque Hoedown become audible and Mickey Mouse on the parade’s title float becomes visible.

Nothing quite compares to Tomorrowland at night in the Magic Kingdom. The place comes alive with a kinetic energy not felt during the day. The Background Music seems to deeper and more palpable, the neon glows vibrantly, and the Tomorrowland Transit Authority Peoplemover quietly glides by overhead. No other land in the Magic Kingdom has
I imagine, the time period of this statue being right around the time of Walt’s death. In this interpretation of the statue, I imagine Walt saying, “Mickey, go forth and lead our Kingdom.” Mickey undoubtedly personifies the spirit of Walt Disney, and through him, the Disney Kingdom has prospered and grown far beyond Walt’s wildest
At Space Mountain, a rocket-ship blasts off after the recent refurbishment to the attraction that brought in a new queue, some new effects, and an impressive new post-show. While the refurb didn’t bring exceptional on-ride audio, on-ride audio was added a few months later.
