The last picture for the DMP Project, my favorite of the whole bunch of photos.
A big thanks to Javad for helping me out for this out
Today was a very interesting day at the Disneyland resort indeed. It started on a sour note when we figured out the half marathon was today, and it took an extra hour to get to the park due to crazy traffic and what-not. Fortunately the day turned around and some really great things happened.
I actually ended up being stopped and hugged mid-stride while walking through Princess Fantasy Faire. One of the old Drawn to the Magic cast members recognized us from afar and greeted both me and my Dad. And you have to understand, we are just as much Drawn to the Magic fans as we are Aladdin a Musical Spectacular fans, which is saying a lot. Hence me going into my archives to find any decent Drawn to the Magic shot I have. Unfortunately I had only barely got into photography when the show was cancelled, so I don’t actually have a shot of her but my dad does (check out his picture > flic.kr/p/8WP22v ). Anyways, it meant so much that she still remembered us and took the time to say hello to us :)
But today I was also recognized for the first time as being “Canhasal”. A lady had connected the dots from a few tweets by one of the Aladdins, and took a wild guess and asked me if I was Canhasal. It’s great to know people actually appreciate the photos I take and would take the time to tell me personally :)
Not going to lie, I still really miss Drawn to the Magic :(

...but I still believe in magic.
Shot for today's Daily Shoot #420: "Embrace the shadows today and make a photograph dominated by dark tones, also known as a low-key image."

1. I am extraverted and extremely sociable. I have managed to hide my identity for well over a year since being on Flickr. I hate having my picture taken, and am rarely in any!
Several of my Flickr contacts have tagged me and I don't want to be unsociable, so here we go!
2. Not a lot upsets me, but speeding motorists on the forest make my blood boil. Even with a speed restriction of Under 40 MPH I want to scream when people over take me. Each time I see a dead horse at the side of the road, it never ceases to amaze me how easily I cry with anger and frustration!
3. I am mad as a box of frogs, but being a Libra am quite well balanced too!
4. I am a biker (fair weather), and my Harley has a personalised number plate HD03 SAL, which I am very proud of
5. I don't have any kids but am a wonderful Aunt to my many nieces and nephews
6. I have found eternal happiness with a wonderful man called Steve and we live life to the absolute limit. He is very quiet and keeps my feet firmly on the ground as I have a tendency to act on the moment and am very impulsive
7. A true passion in life are my 3 horses and 3 dogs. We do also have 3 feral cats we rescued that live on our small holding, 3 ducks that give us eggs every day, and lots of gold fish that I also rescued from a horrid mucky pond!
8. I have been into photography all of my adult life and drive my partner Steve, family and friends MAD. I always have a camera on me and am constantly having to catch people up as I try to get the magic shot where ever I go. I am being left behind with the technology of digital and at the moment every picture you see on Fickr is straight out of the camera, with the exception of a bit of cropping here and there. I have recently got Photoshop CS4 and hope to get some tuition this year as I love some of the things my flickr friends do to their pictures and an envious of this treatment, layers and Fancy frames you always seem to delight me with.
I am constantly disappointed with my work and whilst I try my hardest when I get home my pictures never seem to be as good as I hoped. My job takes me all over the UK and I work joke hours. Therefore I have to grab what opportunities I can to take pictures and will get around to learning how to enhance my pics more. Who knows, I may decide to leave them as they are............
It is the encouragement of my great Flickr friends that keep me going and their own work that gives me inspiration
9. I have travelled to most parts of the world and try to get away at least 4 times a year. I get quite itchy feet if I haven't travelled for a few months. I still need to get to India though.
10. I have an affinity with Africa and have been to the continent more times than any other part of the world. My dream is to live in the Gambia one day and devote some of my time to charity.
11. I have sponsored children in the Gambia for many years and always send out gifts or money to aid them. More recently this has included an orphanage in Tanzania
12. I support animal charities. I would rescue rather than buy where ever possible. 2 of my three dogs were rescued.
13. I am extremely spiritual, and like to think there is life after death. My heart and soul always want to think the best in people and this has left them hurt or broken on many occasions. Humans have a canny way of doing that don't they? It's funny the only time my animals have broken my heart is when they have died or been hurt themselves..............
14. I truly believe that life is for living and push myself far more than I should do
15. I am passionate about rock music and dabble with the guitar myself (not very well). I like many forms of music, especially if it is live and loud. I try to get to at least 1-2 gigs a month.
16. Whilst I like to be with people, I am generally on my own when I go out on shoots and enjoy these moments to myself. There are also times when there is nothing better than being at home with Steve and the animals and not seeing another soul
17. Because I like breaking rules too; I am a strong believer in animal rights
Working on some Yosemite pictures from last fall in HDR (mild)... This lovely quiet, serene image make me laugh. I took a photo walk in the morning and was told this makes a perfect sunset image because Half Dome 'lights' up! So my husband and I journeyed back at the magic hour - only to find about 40 or so other photographers seeking the magic shot! I had to sort of edge my way into an empty spot while the early birds glared at me... many had really fancy equipment and lenses. I had my Nikon D90 and a tripod - and had fun taking many, many shots. Some I took in the 'bracketing' mode and never processed them until today - I am practicing my HDR skills.
From a while back. All real, no tricks, no PS, just a little CaptureNX control point magic.
Shot here -- Large on black.
La campana de la torre de la iglesia de Mallén. Hace poco cambiaron la iluminación y la toma es irrepetible. No sé si por gracia o por desgracia.
The wind blows and I catch a glimpse of Kibo at dusk. The light is magic. I rush out of the dining tent, fumble for my film SLR to take some photographs, but the warm glow of the sun on the summit had evaporated. I think only Boon Gan got the magic shot with his Canon D10. Nonetheless, still beautiful. We all came out to savour the views of our only evening in the Great Barrano Valley.
Bitterly cold, fresh snow balanced precariously on tree branches. Wait patiently, the snow falls as dust, catching the bright morning sun. Magic!
Shot in Cilcain, North Wales.
Dhobi Ghat is a fascinating place where Mumbai gets its laundry done. Clothes are hand washed by hundreds of Dhobis (laundry men and women) on concrete sinks and hung on clotheslines. Almost two hundred dhobis and their families stay and work together in what has always been a hereditary occupation.
Durante la detención de los Templarios, algunos grabaron mensajes en las paredes que hoy todavía son indescifrables. Toda la parte norte de la torre está completamente grabada. Palabras, crucifijos, personajes, fechas y símbolos diversos.
