Thanks for looking. I appreciate feedback!
Outside Star Tours at Disney's Hollywood Studios. Thanks and have a great day!
Added: You can actually make out the constellation Orion to the left of the AT-AT's "head."
The AT-AT outside Disney's Hollywood Studio Star Tours appears to be a part of the nightly Star Wars fireworks show.
We had a pretty cool looking sky that afternoon so I got a shot with the sky and the cool new sign! Enjoy!

Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge - Central Florida
Millennium Falcon: Smuggler's Run - Cold Day!
Hollywood Studios - Orlando, Florida U.S.A.
Winter - Christmas Day - December 25th, 2022
*[left-double-click for a closer-look - Star Wars landscape]
*[Couldn't wait to get back to this cool Star Wars exhibit to get a
'second shot' at this area! The first time was so much fun! Enjoy]
*[We had such a good time at this new Hollywood Studio's exhibit back in Dec/2019 that we came back for the grand opening week of a new 2nd exhibit that they just completed. Unfortunately, many of the exhibits were shut down (including this new one) because it was too cold, the machinery does not operate properly if the outside temp is below 40 degrees, and we were at about 35 degrees! LOL For Florida that is very low! So, I just took all the new exterior shots.
They are pretty cool. Hope you like them. Thank you for looking]
*******************************************************************************
From: 12/15/19
*[The quite-amazing new STAR WARS exhibit opened just ten days
prior (to above) on December 5th, 2019. Since we were in Orlando
for a company holiday-party we checked it out. As expected, it was jammed in the daytime with a 90+ minute wait for the ride. We went back in the evening (with a 35 minute wait) and it was very cool! With everything all lit-up at night it was fantastic and we truly felt
as if we were on the Galaxy's Edge! A must for the Star Wars fan!]
*[We flew the fastest ship in the galaxy
while hurtling through hyperspace! LOL]
*[Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge is set within the Star Wars universe, at the Black Spire Outpost village on the remote frontier planet of Batuu. Attractions include Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance, a dark ride that places guests in a climactic battle between the First Order and the Resistance; and Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run, a flying simulator attraction that allows guests to pilot the Millenium Falcon through a customized secret mission on behalf of Hondo Ohnaka and Chewbacca. Restaurants and shops include Oga's Cantina, Savi's Workshop, and the Droid Depot. The land opened in 2019, replacing the park's Streets of America section. The 14-acre area cost an estimated $1 billion. - Probably why a park-ticket is $159.]

The All Terrain Armored Transport, or AT-AT walker, is a four-legged transport and combat vehicle used by the Imperial ground forces. Standing over 73½ feet tall with blast-impervious armor plating, these massive constructs are used as much for psychological effect as they are for tactical advantage. First seen on the planet Hoth in episode 5-The Empire Strikes Back (1980), these massive and imposing machines were also seen in episode 6-Return of the Jedi (1983), episode 7-The Force Awakens (2015), and in the animated series Star Wars Rebels (2014).
This photo was taken in 2013 during my previous Project 365…please visit my album for this “REMASTERED” Project 365 as I revisit each day of 2013 for additional photos to share!!
Three bracketed photos were taken with a handheld Nikon D5200 and combined with Photomatix Pro to create this HDR image. Additional adjustments were made in Photoshop CS6.

Hm, I wasn’t sure how I felt about the composition on this one at first. There’s a lot of distracting elements in front of this scene such as the spot lights and the stage off to the left, so I got as close, aimed high and went wide. The AT-AT Walker appears that it is about to “walk” out of the frame. I also some a more dark and “grittier” look contrary to my normal editing ways. I think it works o.k.

During this space tour i could try this startrail. It was difficult for me listen the explanations, watch the sky and make a good composition at the same time with the rest of the people walking around! ;) At least I made it with telescopies behind the scene and with focus at the south. A great tour!!
The two shadows are magallanes's nebulous. To locate the south galactic point we need to focus close to the 'la cruz del sur' stars, which is similar to the polar star in the north hemisphere. Stars curiosities!!

*[Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge is set within the Star Wars universe, at the Black Spire Outpost village on the remote frontier planet of Batuu. Attractions include Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance, a dark ride that places guests in a climactic battle between the First Order and the Resistance; and Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run, a flying simulator attraction that allows guests to pilot the Millenium Falcon through a customized secret mission on behalf of Hondo Ohnaka and Chewbacca. Restaurants and shops include Oga's Cantina, Savi's Workshop, and the Droid Depot. The land opened in 2019, replacing the park's Streets of America section. The 14-acre area cost an estimated $1 billion. - Probably why a park-ticket is $159.]
Bright suns, travelers!
Ever since building and sharing my miniature diorama of the Star Wars Galaxy’s Edge layout based on the early Imagineering concept art in 2016 (long before the official name had been announced and many referred to the developing expansions at the time as “Star Wars Land,”) I had convinced myself that I was going to build larger, minifigure-scale sections of Batuu once the land was open and the details of Black Spire Outpost could be experienced up close and personal.
After pouring through as many reference photos, videos, and concept art as I could get my hands on, I now present a minifg-scale display of the entrance/facade to the Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run attraction, home of Ohnaka Transport Solutions.
With the iconic Millennium Falcon docked out front of the curved hangar bay, beneath the rocky spires of an alien world, this section of Galaxy’s Edge is perhaps what we all think of when we think of a perfect amalgamation of the visual aesthetics of not only the Galaxy’s Edge experience, but Star Wars in general. I worked diligently to capture all the details I could pack in at this scale, attempting to blend the natural landscape of the Batuu spires with the weathered and lived-in hangar building. Using the 75257 version of the Falcon (with some minor exterior modifications and added greebles), the rest was built up and around to create a bustling corner of Black Spire Outpost for Hondo Ohnaka to conduct his smuggling operations, while avoiding the suspicion of the First Order patrols.
Thanks for checking out my design! Good journeys to you all— Til the spire!
