Our first time in New Fantasyland, though it's not quite finished, was awesome. The level of theme throughout these new areas is outstanding. We went straight for Voyage of the Little Mermaid in the morning to get that out of the way without too much wait. I wanted to go through the whole queue to see everything. I shot a bit as I went, this was definitely one of the favorites. The attention to detail and the distress on everything was well done. This was handheld with the Nikon and 35mm f/1.4.

POTD - Party On A Monday
I had a thought, since I'm on day five of six in our long holiday hours at work, that we all might need some smiles for Monday. I get four days off in December and average about a 65 hour week through the holidays. Which isn't ideal, but money is made so I can't complain. I also get to still share photos with you all. This is another bokeh pano with my good friends the gators at Port Orleans French Quarter. I really do love this technique, really increases ones versatility and it's really cool to see one of these finished from all the work that could go into them.
This is my first one that I've done with a really wide, almost pano wide, composition. I think it works well with the street and subjects, but want your opinions as well. Please let me know what you all think as any suggestions are welcomed and appreciated. Enjoy!

POTD - Sid Cahuenga's One Of A Kind
I was really happy while roaming around DHS, while Jenea was riding attractions with some other friends, to shoot and enjoy Sid Cahuenga's. It's something I always remembered as a kid going in here and seeing all the signatures and just enjoying the atmosphere. I've seen photos of what it's become and was not too pleased. This apparently keeps happening to various areas around the parks, where functionality is first seated to theme and detail. My only hope is that this does not keep trending this way, as I'd hate to lose great photo spots like this one. Please let me know what you all think as any suggestions are welcomed and appreciated. Enjoy!

POTD - Cleared For Launch
One attraction I didn't want to miss while we were there was Star Tours. It was down getting the current refurbishment while we were there in 2011. I'm not sure what it was, but that ride got my stomach all kinds of turned upside down. I can only guess it's the combination of 3D and simulator, because the simulator alone never used to bother me. I'll have to give it another go next time I'm down then I may be down with Star Tours. That sure won't stop me from going through this awesome queue line!

POTD - On Guard
This has quickly become the unofficial mascot of new Fantasyland it seems. This isn't something that hasn't been done before, just putting my own spin on it. I have more ideas for this spot next time I'm down though. I was happy with the way the late morning light created some interesting shadows.

POTD - Monorail Monday - Seeing Double
It wasn't until I was home, through editing the Olympus shots, and onto day 2 of shots from the Nikon before I noticed something about this shot. Completely by accident, while getting a good angle to shoot monorail orange here, I composed monorail gold in the frame as well. Got to love when a plan comes together, even if it wasn't a plan to begin with. We ended up with a lot of clouds that week, which I'm not stranger to living in St. Louis. Though we didn't have as many of those "classic Florida skies" as we normally do. We both decided this trip that so far, and we haven't been for the Holidays keep in mind, is our favorite time was our last trip which was right as Flower and Garden was starting in March. Please let me know what you all think as any suggestions are welcomed and appreciated. Enjoy!
