Ever Wonder How Sleeping Beauty Castle Looks At 5:55 a.m.?

As the clock neared the 6 am closing time on “One More Disney Day” at Disneyland, the remaining guests who braved the overnight hours descended upon the hub and Main Street, USA. Everyone was surprisingly wide-awake, and excited to be there as Disneyland finished its long day. Of course, I was still going crazy with my camera, as it’s not everyday that you can photograph Sleeping Beauty Castle in this beautiful 5:55 am “blue hour” light! In just an hour, this beautiful blue hour light would give way to a gorgeous sunrise, as captured in this photo of the Main Street Train Station (on Facebook).

Technical details: tripod-mounted Nikon D7000 and Rokinon 8mm Fisheye Lens. See our Disney Photography Guide for more photography equipment recommendations.

  1. Beautiful picture.
    Maybe you just need to come on my vacation and take all my pictures, yours are always amazing.

    1. DEAL! I have a few demands: 1) Concierge at the Grand Floridian, 2) Meals at California Grill, Jiko, Citric…

      😉

  2. I think I prefer this to the sunrise picture. Love the reflection and the overall framing. And you can hardly tell the Matterhorn is encased in scaffolding! Awesome shot!

  3. Very nice – one of my favorite spots to shoot from too. Great lens selection; I need to get one of those soon. @TommyPix
