Are you planning on going to the see the new Cinderella movie?

 

I was informed the other day that the Cinderella Carriage was out on display in Hollywood Studios. So I knew I wanted to get a shot of it. This Carriage is so amazing. The detail work is so...

I used the HDR part of my Nik Collection plugin for this edit. Something I had not played with before.

What sit-down restaurant in Hollywood Studios is your favorite?

 

One morning, I was walking around Hollywood Studios looking for new things to take photos of. I'm kinda lucky in that pretty much everything here in the World is new to me and worth taking photo of. I walked into a place I had heard about and have been excited to see since I got here. The Sci-Fi Diner. The outside of this place doesn't...

Where in the Magic Kingdom is your favorite quiet place?

 

The other day as I was taking photos of Magic Kingdom before opening, I ventured back from Frontierland toward Liberty Square and I saw this. There's something peaceful about the Rivers of America in the morning. The sound of the water from Harper's Mill can be heard rushing down so clearly when there are no guests. I love the parks when they are full of people and the hustle and bustle is fun, but...

Have you been to the Top of the World in Bay Lake Tower?

 

This one evening I somehow sneaked (I thought it was snuck) into an elevator bound for the top floor of the Bay Lake Tower. I wasn't complaining because that's exactly where I wanted to go, but I wasn't a vacation club member. A lady came in and pressed her magic band to the panel and off we went. I got off and watched the...

Do you "Fall" in love with the Magic Kingdom Decorations?

 

Once again I was kicked out of the Magic Kingdom. Security was tight after the park had been extended an hour. I didn't want the extension. It meant that I would be leaving the park later than expected and that most people wouldn't be as nice as they usually are at the end of the night for photographers with tripods. Although, the plus side meant that no one else would be lingering in my shots...

Are you sad to see Halloween leave already for Christmas?

 

I decided to use this photo over others because I feel the Halloween wasn't here long enough. As I was getting pushed out of Magic Kingdom, I stopped to get this one last shot It was already after midnight and the park was supposed to close two hours before that, but got extended and then we were taking pictures until an hour after that. I'm sad to see Halloween go, even though I'm really...

Do you think those are ghosts?

 

One great morning I was in the Magic Kingdom before the park opened to guests and I was taking photos. I ventured over to Mansion and found a Cast Member Tour going on. I followed them for a bit, but had to keep going to get photos of the hardest place in the queue to photograph, the foyer. There is so much throughput here that is is almost impossible to get it with the doors closed or without any guests at all, not to mention the...

Have you seen the Lights on the Castle yet?

 

I ventured over to Magic Kingdom to take pictures of the lights that have made it onto to castle for the Holiday Season. I'm so excited and they look great! The castle is so majestic and it has easily put me in the mood for Christmas. I can't wait to take more shots from different angles and share them with you all. Plus, there are so many things that are decorated from the parks to the...

Which Tree is better: Magic Kingdom vs Disneyland?

 

Oh the lack of sleep I get while trying to get just the right photo. It is a sacrifice for all of you that I get up at 2:30 am to go to the parks and resorts to take these photos. I'm not complaining! I actually love this. I just want you to know that I do not just get what life gives me, I take more. I really enjoy what I do and I hope what I am doing is worth your time and brings you joy like I get from doing it. This is my gift to you this wonderful season...

What do you think of the FastPass ONLY line?

 

I recently spoke with a cast member of Toy Story Midway Mania in Hollywood Studios about Disney's test run of the FastPass Only line. He said it was great. Well, great to have a manageable line, but not so great with the guests who didn't have FastPass and wanted to rip his head off. I'm sure many people were furious with the idea. I'm not sure how I feel about it. I liked the old system where you...

What was your first Attraction?

 

Having lived in the West for most of my life and frequently traveling to or though Southern Utah and areas much like it, places like Big Thunder Mountain do not feel too far from reality. What does catch me off guard here in the early morning is hearing the trains go by and not one scream can be heard. Empty trains being run as they get ready...

A cold November morning duck hunting in East Penobscot Bay, Maine. Three of us were in a boat waiting for the ducks to come in. I couldn't resist breaking the cardinal rule and setting my shotgun while the decoys were out. I grabbed my camera and start "shooting" away. Our guide was miffed, but since no ducks came in for an hour I didn't feel bad.

 

This was taken with a Canon 7d, and a 15-85 hand held. I used Nik HDR Efx to edit the shot.

Does bad weather deter you from going to the parks?

 

The other day it rained, and rained, and rained, and I couldn't believe people still wanted to ride rides in Animal Kingdom. Luckily, I knew what rain meant for me. I got off work and raced home to get my camera gear and went right over to Hollywood Studios. I get there in hopes to take a picture of the Sorcerer Hat before they take it down and hopefully without the stage. To my...

How early do you like to go to the parks?

 

When I go to the parks to take photos, it's usually very early in the morning or late at night. When I go to the parks on my days off, I go when I feel like it. Then there are the times when I was on vacation. I would wake up super early and try to get as much done in one day as possible. I would never claim to say it was the most...

I'm sorry folks for the time off. I was experiencing some major issues with facebook and I decided to take some time off for my birthday. I had a great time and was very happy to spend some time with great friends. Also an addition to my work resume.

Do you know the story behind this bus/food cart?

 

I have seen people take photos of this amazing bus/food cart before, but never been able to capture the full beauty of the colors displayed. The blue stands out so much against the green backdrop. I can't say I've ever bought anything from this stand, but it is amazing. People walk by this every day and appreciate this wonderful piece of work, but do they no the story behind it and why it is there in Asia? I...

What do you love about the Walt Disney World version of the Haunted Mansion?

 

Welcome Foolish Mortals!I've said this one before, but out of all of the comparison attractions between Disneyland and Walt Disney World,the Haunted Mansion wins with everything except one simple thing. The building itself, I like the simplistic Disneyland version. This one here in Florida is over top better. It never goes to the Holiday overlay and there are even more...

While walking around Animal Kingdom the other night I came across this amazing spot to see the Tree Of Life, the icon of the park. It's quite majestic in it position and how it towers over everything. The river here reflected the tree so well I couldn't help but whip out my tripod and hold here for a while to get a shot of it. It's almost as though the water were a mirror or even that there was no water at all but rather another tree growing below the one we see. Animal kingdom has so many of these...

How wet have you gotten on the Kali River?

 

One night I was walking around Animal Kingdom after hours and getting used to my new home, and I stumbled upon this area. Everything seemed so amazing. I had been in the park many times before for work and for fun, but none of my friends wanted to go to Kali to get wet. So as I entered this area, I was dumbfounded by its beauty. I immediately took out my camera and tripod and, like I had mentioned in a post before, got stuck here for more than an hour longer than I had planned...

What are your thoughts on Disney's Animal Kingdom?

 

When I first heard I was going to Animal Kingdom to work, I looked up the park hours to see if there was a chance to get overtime hours and work more. It turns out that this park closes frequently at 5 pm and most likely before any of the other parks. I was upset, but then realized, this gives me a chance to go take photos every day after work at any other park very easily. I love it. I can go...

What extended queue makes you want to stay in line longer?

 

Some of my favorite things to do is venture into the extended queue areas for the attractions. Many times, there are things that people get to enjoy if they are in line for over an hour on the more busy of days. It's sad that some of these places just collect dust (figuratively speaking of course) during slow times. This one happens to come from...

Why do think the parks at night seem to be more magical?

 

Out of all the parks, Animal Kingdom and EPCOT are the most friendly for me as a photographer. They are very chill about me staying around after to take a few shots. Magic Kingdom has strict rules about staying after and now that I abide by them I'm fine. But for some reason Hollywood Studios seems to give me problems. Regardless, I love the park. I...

What do you think of the show in Canada?

 

Every time I go to EPCOT and World Showcase, I seem to find something new. I seriously have not spent enough time in this park. I've been here for months now and I still have not been over every inch of this place. Hollywood Studios I feel the same way though. Animal Kingdom and Magic Kingdom, I feel I know the best, but still I am learning more and more each time. And now with...

What would you like to see Glow!?

 

I have always loves EPCOT. There is something about the park that draws me in and makes me never want to leave. Maybe it's the many things in World Showcase or the innovation. But I know the moment I stepped foot there I was home. From day one of Digital Elegance, EPCOT has had some amazing shots come out. My first photo was...

Where in Disney World do you go to watch the sun rise?

 

I tried to get out last night to retake the photo of the tree that I had from the other day, but I ran out of time. So I decided to go this morning instead. I love the opportunity to just get up and go. I couldn't for the life of me get a great angle on it and I was about to give up when the sun started rise and the clouds in the background started to turn from their shades of dark blue to red on their way to...

Have you ever seen this spot in Animal Kingdom?

 

Here I was traveling through Asia, I had just finished taking photos of the mountain range with the expedition trails and train. I started to head to Africa when I saw this quaint trail to my right. It was weird to me, it looked as though no one ever walked this way. Sure the trail was swept, but I had to know where it went. I decided to follow it...

Which park has the best play area for kids?

 

Many of the parks have a little area for little kids to blow off steam in a controlled area while the parents sit and relax for a bit. For Hollywood Studios, that place is the Honey I Shrunk the Kids Movie Set Adventure. Here you can bounce around on larger than life toys and explore the the backyard like never before.
