What can you learn from a photo like this?

It was a nice morning in Animal Kingdom when I started my day. The clouds were mostly flat and the air was crisp. Guests started to come into the park and I had almost given up on taking any photos of any place where they were walking around. Luckily, they hadn't gone over toward the Lion King Theater yet. I set up and took...

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...

What do you think of the architecture of Animal Kingdom Lodge?

I don't usually like to make complaints on this blog, but today I would like to ask you all, why did the architects design Animal Kingdom Lodge so oddly? I don't get why you have to walk to 3 different half levels just to get to places. I got so confused just to get to this place. I was fine with the adventure, but if I was a guest I would be quite upset. This seems to go along with the design of Discover Island at...

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...

I am SO SO SO TIRED.

I went to work today and then went to this meeting with some friends from the photography e-group that im also member of..

It was pretty cool because it was actually a meeting with some history students so their professor was telling the history of the places while we walked by.

Tried to pay attention, but i was actually more focused on taking pics. Oh well!

I waled a LOT and now i just need to rest!

Hope everyone had a wonderful thursday!

Have you seen The Osborne Family Spectacle of Dancing Lights in Disney's Hollywood Studios?

On a personal note I am having a very difficult time this year with the Holiday Season. Five years ago, I was in Disneyland working in PhotoPass and I was having the time of my life. I was experiencing my very first Disney Christmas and I was in love. Now I'm in Disney World and I am feeling a bit lonely. Disney World is so large and every bit of music and decoration reminds me of the past and how I miss that. But the other night...

I love this place, the Princess Fairytale Hall. The building is so nice and the theming is over the top. I have yet to see inside, but the exterior is marvelous. What a great way for children of all ages to come meet their favorite princess. With the popularity of Anna and Else, this place is crazy busy with families waiting to see them. Disney has done almost anything they can to get more people through to see them and now trying to get rid of...

This is one amazing place and unfortunately when I've gone, it's late at night and all the activities are mostly done for the day. I just love this area though and this building is...

2014-07-10-EPCOT-Monorail-1 by Digital Elegance

7

Of all the parks in the Walt Disney Resort, EPCOT seems to me to be the most photogenic. Maybe because it's so easy to get lost in all the theming. Or maybe it's because it's the park I've given most of my time to outside of work. I'm certain that it's like I have said before. I feel the most at home in EPCOT. World Showcase or anywhere else, it feels like my kind of park. A place to look to the future and learn from other cultures. I'm all about technology and trying not to be so ignorant to the traditions of others in this lovely world we share.

I put a lot of love into this photo. I hope you all can feel it and wish to share this your friends and family. I'm also interested in hearing from you all as to what you would like to see pictures of. Please make comments below or send me a message on any of the social media sites I'm on.

The Mad Tea Party or the "Teacups", as most people call it, is a ride I seldom ride. Not because I don't like it. On the contrary, I love it. I rarely go to the parks with anyone who wants to ride it, though. I'm either alone or the group I'm with would rather spend their time on something else. I don't blame them. There are a lot more things to do in Magic Kingdom. I did convince some friends of mine to ride with me...

While exploring the Wilderness Lodge at the Walt Disney Resort, I found this little area in one of the other buildings. What you are not able to see is the fireplace behind the bird cage. On the other side of the wall is the fireplace and a great place to sit and relax. I really love this place. It reminds me so much of the Grand Californian in California. It has that homey feeling that rustic cabins can give...

Are you daring enough to ride Splash Mountain in the winter?

As a Cast Member, I will often come into the parks before everyone else is allowed to get things ready for you. We prep the...

There's something about Japan and Japanese culture that draws me in. Maybe it's the fact that I've been doing Origami for decades or that I do watch an occasional Anime series or movie. But ever since my first piece of sushi, there has been nothing holding me back from learning about these wonderful people. The Germans, though they have some differences in culture, aren't too different from what I grew up with. But Japanese culture come in with...

Yup, I work here at Dinosaur in Animal Kingdom normally when I'm not running around the parks and resorts taking pictures or at home editing them. I really like it here. I feel like I've joined a new family and everyone is usually very friendly. Like every place there are few people that have lost the magic as to why they work there. I find it very sad.

Magic was made one time I visited Disney's California Adventure. Carsland had just opened and for some reason I was possessed to get food at the Cozy Cone. Cone 4 had a thing called Red's Apple Freeze. It sounded like something I had to try. When I did, I fell in love and wondered why there wasn't a longer line for this magical drink. Here I am in Walt Disney World and a friend of mine got a LeFou's Brew and asked if I wanted to try it. I took one look at it and almost dropped. I had been over to Gaston's Tavern before taking pictures but no one had told me that this was CONE 4!!! The same drink is here in all its glory. I get one now almost every time I go to the Magic Kingdom.

For those, like me, who wish to make this lovely drink while looking at this amazing picture in the comfort of your pajamas and jumbo office chair, I found this lovely lady who has a youtube channel called The Disney Diner. Watch this simple and short video on how to make your own Red's Apple Freeze or LeFou's Brew. Subscribe to her channel and then share this post with your friends.

Happy 5 Years DCP Fall '09!

Five years ago today, I started something that I thought would just look great on a resume and possibly launch me into a career in creating websites for movies and help companies promote them. I had no idea I would fall in love with a company and a service model that I literally could not live without. I had no idea that I could create such life-long friendships with people from all over the country who I love dearly and still contact fairly regularly (thank you Facebook).

The movie Frozen has had quite an impact on the Disney Company. I don't think they even realized how much social media would push this movie into the fore front of everyone's lives.

What Resort Is Your Favorite?

The first resort I went to after I moved here was the majestic Grand Floridian. I had to see how it compared to my favorite Grand Californian which I frequented while living there in Anaheim and even after. This resort is a stark contrast to that of the Californian. The Floridian is overly posh. I love the white and pristine feel to it. This one feels like a place that those elite of the 1930's would come for a vacation after making their millions. Much like how the Californian places you in an over-sized cabin with cozy fireplace, the Floridian sets you up for a day at the beach or relaxing to the sounds of the piano player play classical pieces for a full immersive experience.

I wish to spend more time in each of the many resorts here on Disney Property. They all have their own personality. The question is, which one next? So far I have been impressed by the theming and the atmosphere. I'll be sure to post what I get from each one. It get's hard to pick a picture of the day from so many pictures taken. For the record I have enough for a couple of months now, but I don't like to place things too close together. As is, you fans of the Hollywood Studios are probably very mad at me right now that I haven't got anything for you yet. YET! Coming soon.
