This is from a sunrise shoot I did at Shaw Nature Reserve which is a conservation area of sorts a bit outside the St. Louis city limits. It's a very nice a quiet place to shoot, though it was fairly cold that morning. One of the old houses that sits on the land has this patio, with these chairs. It was pretty easy to tell what direction these were meant to view and the shot just was there. Please let me know what you all think as any suggestions are welcomed and appreciated. Enjoy!
Happy Thanksgiving to everyone, hope your day is as relaxing as this shot! :)

POTD - Tangled In Layers
From what I've heard from other who shot this before I got to it, that this Tangled restroom area is somewhat hard to shoot. I noticed the same thing when we swung by this area so I could do a bit of shooting. This is probably the best thing I found while roaming around at that given time. I like the little nods to the movie that I saw all over this area, like the Flynn's satchel hanging from the window. I tried to layer this to include as many interesting elements of the area. Please let me know what you all think as any suggestions are welcomed and appreciated. Enjoy!

POTD - Leaky Topiary and Tea Pots
This isn't something that I or anyone else hasn't shot several times before. I love this area of Fantasyland as Alice in Wonderland is my favorite Disney animated feature. I noticed as we were walking by, that the topiary was dripping. After watching it for a minute, I'm assuming it has hoses fed through it to feed water. I thought it lent well to the whole thing, and I really been pleased with how this turned out. Please let me know what you all think as any suggestions are welcomed and appreciated. Enjoy!

POTD - Signs and Texture
The apparent attention to detail in the Asia land of Animal Kingdom is something that is a constant draw for me. I could've spent another half of a day just shooting in this direct area. These signs, the rust, the distress on the walls is amazing. This is on the side of the building at the gift shop coming off Expedition Everest. Most people just walk by, but everything about this made me stop. Just shows how our photographer eyes work sometimes, this was one of those that just stopped me in my tracks. Please let me know what you all think as any suggestions are welcomed and appreciated. Enjoy!

POTD - Peering Through The Glass
I had a lot of fun the second to last day of our trip touring the Monorail resorts. We started that morning with our group breakfast at Kona Cafe, which was a ton of fun as always with that group. From there, Jenea, Ben (wdwben), and myself went on to the Grand Floridian for some shopping and photo taking. Then onto Contemporary for more of the same, this is where we split off from Ben as he was heading back home in the area. We boated over the Wilderness Lodge and back just so I could do some shooting. All that and we ended up back at the Polynesian, and a Dole Whip later I was having tons of fun shooting the Tiki statues around the gift shop. Jenea and I couldn't stop laughing about this one, I know it's been there for a while now, but it still cracks me up for whatever reason. :) Please let me know what you all think as any suggestions are welcomed and appreciated. Enjoy!

POTD - Everest In Bloom
Watching this sunset over the water at Expedition Everest was like watching a flower bloom. It went through so many stages before peaking here. I definitely have a few more shots of this area as it's when the sunset was actually happening. After this is when I got the Tree of Life shot I posted last week. I was really happy with they way this whole series turned out and really glad I had my Olympus E-PL5 with me at the time. That said, my brand new Olympus E-M1 should be arriving today, which I of course can't wait for. Please let me know what you all think as any suggestions are welcomed and appreciated. Enjoy!
