I took this while waiting to see Finding Nemo - The Musical. It's a simple shot but I thought it was unique and interesting.

Tomorrowland, while certainly focused on the "future," has always really been about fantastical modes of transportation. In it's heyday, Tomorrowland used to bustle with activity as Skyway cabins, People mover cars, monorails, Autopia cars, and submarines used to all converge in one spot. A lot of these modes of transportation have begun to fade away with time, but at Disneyland you still get glimpses of this world on the move as monorails glide over emerging submarines.
The seventeenth piece to the much larger puzzle exploring opposites within the worlds of Pixar films.
And this is all for Seb Mesnard's THE MOVIE SHOW! Check it out.

Finding Nemo - The Musical
You know a tune is catchy when both your wife and your son are singing on the way out of the theater...and again on the way back to the resort hotel.
I'm glad the large Nemo was the only option at the Disney store. I think he really made the costume. This photo was taken by QHG's resident photographer, Elangovan.
I was a sea anemone with clownfish (Nemo) for Halloween this year. I won first prize for most unique/creative costume at work!
Boat! I still feel this is the best live show in all of WDW!
Thanks for looking and have a great day!
Tonight was a night of spontaneity, I decided at the last minute to go and watch fireworks at Disneyland. After rushing there on the freeway, dealing with stupid people in the parking structure (don't wait for someone to leave if there are already spots open nearby, people!), and the spring break crowds on Main Street I was worried that 3 minutes wasn't enough time to get set up and find a spot. Thankfully the fireworks were running about 5 min late and it gave me just enough time to set up. The lagoon wasn't my first choice for fireworks with the Matterhorn still halfway covered in scaffolding, but after the CM wouldn't let me cross Main Street it became my only option because they close Fantasyland during the show. It ended up for the best, the newly painted Matterhorn looks 100 times better in photos than it does in person and the fireworks were stunning! Glad it worked out the way it did.
Please don't hesitate to tell me what you think, comments and constructive criticism are welcome and appreciated! :)

Finding Nemo cake
This is my favourite cake. I'm so proud of this one ;o)

A quick shot I grabbed on the way into the Nemo ride. It's an atmospheric queue (the music in this pavilion is bar none my favorite park ambient music), but we've never actually had to wait more than about 20 seconds to get on this ride so I made a point to stop and get a few shots.
ISO 800, f/2.8, 1/8 sec handheld and it was still underexposed. Brought back from the trash by Lightroom and Noise Ninja as usual!

Finding Nemo (Andrew Stanton, Lee Unkrich, 2003) is the fifth full-length animated film by Pixar, distributed by Walt Disney Pictures. It tells the story of an overprotective clownfish named Marlin who, along with a regal blue tang named Dory, searches for his missing son Nemo. Along the way, Marlin learns to take risks and comes to terms with Nemo taking care of himself. The film was a huge success and received more than thirty awards, including an Oscar for Best Animated Feature. Finding Nemo was a huge box-office success worldwide, earning nearly $865 million.
At the beginning of Finding Nemo (2003), the clownfish Marlin and his wife Coralie have just moved to a new anemone in the Great Barrier Reef. Their happiness is short-lived as Coralie and almost all the eggs she had laid are devoured by a barracuda. Only one egg survives. Marlin decides to name the little fish from this egg Nemo, a name that Coralie had thought up. In Latin, the word "nemo" means "nobody" or "no one." It is also a reference to Captain Nemo in Jules Verne's novel '20,000 Leagues Under the Sea'. Nemo has one fin that is smaller than normal. His father and he call it Nemo's lucky fin. It is actually a kind of scar from the barracuda's attack. The incident also makes Marlin excessively neurotic and protective of Nemo. When Nemo is older, it is time for him to go to school. The timid Marlin follows Nemo, against his will, to make absolutely sure he is safe. Nemo has clearly had it with his father's behaviour. To prove there is no danger, he leaves the coral reef. However, he is spotted by two divers. One of them catches Nemo in a net and takes him away. Marlin gets over his fear of the open sea to retrieve Nemo. He meets Dory, a blue tang suffering from short-term memory loss. One of the divers has lost his goggles, and Marlin finds them. The address of the diver is written on the goggles. With the help of Dory, who can read, they find out that Nemo is in Sydney now. Dory accompanies Marlin to Sydney on his search for Nemo. The two come across, among other things, three vegetarian sharks, a school of jellyfish, and a group of sea turtles. The latter help them a great deal. Finally, Marlin and Dory are swallowed by a humpback whale that blows them out through the blowhole, which carries them the last mile to Sydney.
The inspiration for Finding Nemo (2003) sprang from multiple experiences, going back to director Andrew Stanton's childhood, when he loved going to the dentist to see the fish tank, assuming that the fish were from the ocean and wanted to go home. In 1992, shortly after his son was born, he and his family took a trip to Six Flags Discovery Kingdom which was called Marine World at the time. There, after seeing the shark tube and various exhibits, he felt that the underwater world could be done beautifully in computer animation. Later, in 1997, he took his son for a walk in the park but realized that he was overprotecting him and lost an opportunity to have a father-son experience that day. In an interview with National Geographic magazine, Stanton said that the idea for the characters of Marlin and Nemo came from a photograph of two clownfish peeking out of an anemone: "It was so arresting. I had no idea what kind of fish they were, but I couldn't take my eyes off them. And as an entertainer, the fact that they were called clownfish—it was perfect. There's almost nothing more appealing than these little fish that want to play peekaboo with you." In addition, clownfish are colourful, but do not tend to come out of an anemone often. For a character who has to go on a dangerous journey, Stanton felt a clownfish was the perfect type of fish for the character. Pre-production of the film began in early 1997. Stanton began writing the screenplay during the post-production of A Bug's Life. As a result, Finding Nemo began production with a complete screenplay, something that co-director Lee Unkrich called "very unusual for an animated film". The artists took scuba diving lessons to study the coral reef. Stanton originally planned to use flashbacks to reveal how Coral died but realized that by the end of the film there would be nothing to reveal, deciding to show how she died at the beginning of the film. Finding Nemo was the first Pixar film not to be scored by Randy Newman. The original soundtrack album, 'Finding Nemo,' was scored by Thomas Newman, his cousin. The score was nominated for the Academy Award for Original Score, losing to The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King. Finding Nemo (2003) did win the Academy Award for Best Animated Feature, the first Pixar film to do so. It was also nominated in two more categories, including Best Original Screenplay. Roger Ebert gave the film four out of four stars, calling it "one of those rare movies where I wanted to sit in the front row and let the images wash out to the edges of my field of vision" Finding Nemo became the highest-grossing animated film at the time of its release, and was the second-highest-grossing film of 2003, earning a total of $871 million worldwide by the end of its initial theatrical run. Demand for tropical fish exploded right after the film's release, especially for clownfish and blue tang. Finding Nemo is the best-selling DVD title of all time, with over 40 million copies sold as of 2006. After the success of the 3D re-release of The Lion King, Disney re-released Finding Nemo in 3D in 2012. A spin-off sequel, Finding Dory, was released in June 2016.

December is Pixar month at EFSP!
So tired today. I had no capacity to be creative, so this is as good as it gets.
Just a lil tribute to one of my favorite movies. That's right....I love Finding Nemo. Loooooooooooove it! I enjoyed it before the kids were old enough to watch it and I enjoy it even more now that the kids love it. They ask to watch it all the time, and I almost never say no because frankly, I never get tired ot watching it either. :)

I wanted to start posting 1 photo on the weekends and focusing on shows and dark ride shots. I originally wanted to post on Saturday but thanks to a pinched nerve in my neck have been laid up and unable to get to the computer. Anyway... feeling better now and you know what they say, better late than never, so here's a shot from Finding Nemo - The Musical. Enjoy!
Proving once again that kids really have it made on a Disney cruise, here's a shot of the Nemo's Reef water play area onboard the Disney Fantasy.
Located on Deck 11, midship - Nemo's Reef provides a bright and colorful area for kids 8 years old and younger to splash around with Dory, Marlin, Nemo & friends. Kids can slide down Mr. Ray or get 'inked' by mists of water from Pearl. They can also set sail on the East Australian Current water current that moves back and forth.
1,500 square feet of interactive, water fun
Good news for us big kids - unlike the Oceaneer Club we're allowed to join in the fun at Nemo's Reef though only when supervising our little ones. Hey, I'll take what I can get :)
Just keep splashing
