Erupting Every Hour

Because of certain circumstances I was on a level of panic that I don't think I've ever been at before, here at Tokyo Disneysea. Here's a retelling of what happened: After a long day, I finally decided to head over to Journey To The Center Of The Earth, which was supposedly THE disneysea experience. The ride was temporarily closed so I reserved my spot in line waiting for the ride to open.

I was sitting there, outside the ride, for ALMOST 4 HOURS. I watched the sun go down as the sky faded to night through a hole in the façade ceiling. At around 7-8PM, they finally opened it and I got on it. The originality and practicality behind it all was enough for me to forgive it once on the ride though. Worth all the anguish, just glad I got to ride it, 10/10.

But back to this photo, I had a list of nighttime photo priorities I wanted to carry out, and the fact that it was already long dark by the time I got off, I was so stressed when I finally got off and looked at the time. I ended up trying to sprint all over the park and back again to get all the shots. This one was outside Fortress Explorations. A place I didn't get to see yet in general, and it happened to be the closest attraction, so I was running fast, I stopped to get this shot before I continued. From this angle, a Mediterranean fort on the foot of a volcano, the composition seemed to make sense.

The only things I changed in editing were the light on the window and grain in the sky. Of course I do wish I had the chance to stop and take it all in. But I am still glad that this, along with the other night photos yet to come, came out well

I hate Disney
