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...

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. This shot is...

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...

I been away for a few days, i know

Guess why. My computer crashed. And it took me a while to find out what was wrong with it.

It still not ok, but somehow i got it to work. So im desperate here, backing up everything i have on my hard drive, just in case.

But its not fun when you have to back up 80gb of stuff. Specially when all this stuff is spread in random folders in your hard drive. Go me!

Oh well!

Im super tired and sleepy so its time for Raffy here to go to bed and get some well deserved relax.

 

Cheers,

Do you ever visit the other resorts when you visit?

 

This one night I was walking with some friends around Yacht and Beach after getting some ice cream and had some time before I had to get home. So I decided to look for new areas to photograph. I stepped into the Conference building between the two resorts and was taken aback by the colors and how that normal guests that come to the parks never see this. I doubt many of the guests of the resorts even see this. Those that have had some sort of conference here have been fortunate enough, but that limits the numbers that have stepped foot here. I love this place. I have a series of photos that I had to get and will be posting them all in time.

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 Resort has the best Christmas Tree?

 

When I went to visit the Contemporary for a Disney fan event. Well mainly the store part of it and maybe hopefully see Tony Baxter again. I had about an hour to kill before I thought I should go over and line up to get into the store (which I started the line and met some great people), so I thought I might take a couple photos of the Contemporary Resort. I walked around and found the...

Where are the best snacks in Animal Kingdom?

 

Some of the best details in all of the Walt Disney World Parks can be found in Animal Kingdom and most of all in Asia. I absolutely love the attention to detail that the imagineers have given to this area. As you may have seen in my Kali River Rapids Shot before. So many of them are found in...

Have you participated in the Enchanted Tales With Belle?

 

I came here one night to take pictures but had no idea what this place was really. I knew it was in Belle's house or is it? I came in and started taking pictures. I couldn't help it. This place was so beautiful I had to come during "Regular business hours" to really get an idea of what I was taking pictures of. This happens to be the case for many of my photos, unfortunately. I seem to work during the day and come to these places when no one is...

My new favorite shop in the Magic Kingdom is Memento Mori. I have seen many a paycheck go to getting myself and others things from this great store devoted to Haunted Mansion paraphernalia. I am a huge fan of Glow in the Dark... as if you hadn't noticed. With so many things Mansion glowing or UV sensitive, I have to have...

Which resort has the best Christmas decorations?

 

One day, a couple of months ago, I ventured over to the Fort Wilderness Resort. This shot I found as I was walking into the hotel. I loved the warmth here and also the photo locations are so numerous. This place was a joy to wander around and I cannot wait to get back over there to get a shot of their Christmas decorations...

OK, I know selective color is totally passe. I liked the B&W version. I did. Really. I missed the color though, so I tried to be subtle, and I pasted in one layer of select color range. Yeah, it's HDR and bled-ifs, and selective pastes as well...

 

I hope it's enjoyable anyway.

 

Yep, I'm back to the barns too, there are after all, a lot of them around here to photograph - The best part is that I can probably revisit them in the early summer and get brand new, completely different images.

 

Taken with the trusty 28-135... I keep meaning the exploit the zoom, but I'm too conditioned to wide angle zooms and a normal prime.

It has been a very busy summer. Since the beginning of May, I have been moved over to Hollywood Studios and worked 50+ weeks with Star Wars Weekends and then the Frozen Summer Fun. It has been a long time and finally my hours are cut back enough for me to get back to editing photos again.

What part of Maelstrom are you going to miss?

 

On the last night of Maelstrom, a buddy and I decided to pay our respects and ride it one last time. It didn't occur to us at the time that we would be the last ones ever to watch the movie at the end as guests. I was the last guest photographer to photograph this area before they change the ride forever. I'm not sure what I thought of...

Have you been to the new Harambe Theatre?

 

One of the places I go every time I come to Animal Kingdom is the Harambe Theatre to see the Festival of the Lion King. I love this show and it makes me feel so good after. This theatre is so beautiful. A friend of mine said this about it and I have to agree., "Even though it's quite new, it feels as though it's been here since day one." The are is very well designed.

Do you think there should be more frightening things around the parks?

 

So I did one of my favorite things to do for this shot. I stepped back from where I was to find a new and great shot. I love the decorations for Fall and Halloween on the Main Street Station. But this got me thinking. Magic Kingdom is the family friendly Halloween party place, but is there room for another park to come in with their own Halloween fun? What about Hollywood Studios? They already have...

I'm always making comparisons between Disneyland and Walt Disney World. One of them is how each park plays to feature Finding Nemo. With Disneyland, the submarine voyage in Tomorrowland is nice, but I still don't really care for it. I liked the old submarine attraction. Sure some of the effects are really astonishing and and artistry of the coral was amazing to hear about, but Walt Disney World...

Now that you've seen all 4 parks, which tree do you like best?

 

Animal Kingdom got all festive again this year with a great tree. So many things to look at and I had so much fun trying to get the right shot. I had another in the wings, but this one beat out by just a bit. Maybe I'll post it next year. I hope you enjoyed these photos of the Christmas Trees from the parks. I will be posting yet one more tomorrow from a resort. Make your guesses today...

Which Country would you like to see in World Showcase?

 

EPCOT's World Showcase has always fascinated me. I love different cultures and getting to know them. I have adopted many traditions from them and try to better myself. This was the vision of the World Showcase and hopefully bridging better relationships between nations. There is so much room to put in new countries and there are rumors that they are in the process now. The one I would love to see here...

What treat do you have to get when you visit the Parks?

 

As I was walking around Animal Kingdom, I went into Chester and Hester's shop. I love that shop and there are so many things to look at. Back when I was starting to play around the HDR photography, I went to a bead shop in Utah. I took a couple of these types of shots with a shallow depth of field and brought out the colors. To this day, they are some of my favorites. I fell in love with HDR. So to play...

What is your favorite part of Storybook Circus?

 

I came into this area not knowing what to expect. I could see Dumbo from where I stood, but other than that I knew there was a store. Walking around I found this area to be quaint and lovely. This entrance is simple, yet majestic in my opinion. I really enjoyed the rides over here and above everything, I am envious of the costumes. I am now...

I'm going to make this super sweet and short. The Grand's Tree is magnificent, although I'm a bit saddened there is no topper. No star, no angel, no weird pointy orb thingy I've seen on some trees. Oh well. Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night!

I trudged up the mountain through the snow to the highest ridge that I could get to safely. I gained about 800 feet in elevation and just beyond this snowfield is the Nisqually ridge. You are looking at the Nisqually Glacier and if you look closely, you can see a cascading waterfall. The clouds started to roll in from the west and you could hear the thunder but not see the lightning. Dang it! That would have made for a great picture! Got back to the lodge just before the storm moved in.

Have you eaten at Restaurantosaurus?

 

I wanted to take it back to the little details of Walt Disney World for today because there are some of my favorite things that aren't huge postcard of calendar type shots that need their day in the spotlight. For instance this little gem. The Restaurantosaurus Trailer is a Airstream Trailer attached to Restaurantosaurus in DinoLand USA and very few people go near it or even sit in it to have their meal. The restaurant is a great place...

Do you feel like you're in Toy Story when you visit Pizza Planet?

 

Of all the places in Walt Disney World, I've been to Pizza Planet quite a few times. More than I should admit. I remember the first time I stepped foot in here, I knew that at one point I would be posting a picture of it so I walked around while my friends ordered their food. While I was in the bathroom I heard a little boy say to his father, "Daddy? I want to go to Chuck E. Cheeses!" To which the father replied...

What did you take a picture of that you were glad you had your camera on you?

 

When I go to EPCOT I seem to forget about this side of the park. It's not that it's good, it's just that I have not given it the full attention it deserves yet. I haven't even experiences Soarin' on this side of the world yet. But I did come to the park one night and walked over to this side briefly. I saw this sunset and couldn't help take a shot. I wasn't really planning on taking anything. It goes to show, you should always have your...

He showed photos of the real places in Africa and how they match up with Disney counterparts. I was fascinated by how they...

Which Pavilion is your favorite?

 

I have watched many movies that take place in Paris, France. And one show I remember watching in my youth was Highlander. A few seasons actually took place in Paris and I'm not sure exactly why, but Seattle wasn't being very nice to having people shoot a TV show with sword fighting in their slums. I loved the show, and one of my favorite things was where Duncan McLeod of the Clan McLeod would have his...

Which attraction in Walt Disney World has the best queue?

 

Wondering around Disney's Animal Kingdom late at night, I stumbled upon an area I had never been as a guest. I was so turned around yet dumbfounded by the beauty and detail in this place. Covered from the light rain, I was happy to find shelter in the queue of Kali River Rapids. Not only was I happy to out of the rain, but the things here turned my tired eyes to a wide-eyed stare...
