The model is worth the price of admission unfortunately the rest of the “museum” is a disorganized mess. It’s a shame there is a lot of potential there.
The commentary from a “guide” who hated the Kennedy family, having a particular dislike for Jackie, and adored the Trumps did not in any way make the visit more enjoyable.
“The House of Presidents proved successful and remained in operation under the original concept until the 1990s, when John and Jan Zweifel purchased it. John Zweifel had been creating miniatures of historic sites since childhood; after his marriage to Jan in 1959, the couple built a business that crafted Christmas displays for major department stores in Chicago and other cities, as well as exhibits for various clients. They moved to Central Florida in the 1970s. As the new owners of the House of Presidents, the Zweifels added a massive scale model of the White House that became the museum’s new centerpiece. They also gave the attraction a new name – the Presidents Hall of Fame – to mark their expanded concept.”
The Re-ment Addicts Group did a Color Theme Challenge quite some time ago, but I didn't have time to do it. I was inspired by all of the great photos they did, so now that I have a lot of time on my hands, I decided it would be fun to do. I am going to do the whole rainbow, and probably post way more photos than I should!

It looks like my yearly jones to game again is kicking in, so I built this wall out of scraps we had lying around. You know, just to take the edge off, right? I mean, it's not like I'm going to cave and start building an entire city or whatever.
This is the miniature Merlion fountain situated behind the full size Merlion which you can see just to the top left. This is a bokeh pano. It is made up of 29 images shot wide open at f1.4 with the 85mm GMaster. The images are stitched together like a panorama. If I were to shoot this same composition with the 85mm I'd have to stand very far away. So effectively I'm shooting this like I would have a 24-28mm wide angle lens with a hypothetically faster aperture, faster than f1.4
Here is my miniature schnauzer Merlin, she is all of seven pounds.
