Spaceship Earth with a new lighting display for the Walt Disney World 50th Anniversary Celebration at Epcot near Orlando, Florida.
They say the devil is in the detail. This shot is a detail of some of the over 11,000 tiles that cover Spaceship Earth. When you look at this image full size (by pressing L), you'll notice that the tiles do not butt up against each other. There is a one inch gap between tiles that allows rain water to be gathered so that when it rains, the water does not run off the sides onto visitors (again, leave it to Disney to think of all the details).
This is a three shot HDR combined in Photomatix Pro and finished in Lr3.
Press L to see it full size (and see those one inch gaps).
Press F if you like it!
SpaceShip Earth at night - I figured I would give the lighted sidewalk a try with Spaceship Earth in the background - we always love to watch the dancing lights of the sidewalk as we leave EPCOT at night and I always wanted to get a great photo of them. shot with a 8mm bower fisheye

The Art and Science Exhibition Part III consists of a scientific educational part showing some of the most beautiful satellite images of the Earth, curated by ESA, along with some interactive terminals providing the scientific background information. Several examples of artistic works with satellite imaging and historical references to the field comprise the second part of this exhibition.
This satellite image is also part of the Spaceship Earth Exhibition (2015) at Ars Electronica Center, Linz.

A Monk transcribing works in the monastery diorama.
"As we continue our journey, we enter a scriptorium. Literally translated, scriptorium means "a place for writing" and they were found in medieval European monasteries. Here we see monks toiling endlessly to keep up with the ever growing demand for books".

Spaceship Earth
Epcot
It's a tough call for me as to whether Spaceship Earth or the American Adventure are my favorite attractions in all of Walt Disney World. I lean towards Spaceship Earth because there's nothing really like it in any Disney Park the world over. Attractions like Horizons and World of Motion may have had a similar appeal to me, but I never had a chance to experience them that I can remember. The way I see it, SSE represents the last remaining bit of that optimism that so well defined Tomorrowland and Future World at their prime.
The expanded and upgraded UNSC "Excalibur" Class Heavy Cruiser has four of the new Blacklight Engines and a XXXXX Super Blacklight engine. It took 1h 20m to render the rear view because of the trans-red parts. Just a story I made up after doing a modification of K.S.s Cruiser
A view and narrative from Epcot's Spaceship Earth attraction.
"Much of recorded history was lost when Rome falls and the Library of Alexandria burns".
"Fortunately, copies of many of these books and manuscripts were also kept in Middle Eastern libraries. To the right side of our vehicle we see Islamic scholars from various cultures discussing science, astronomy, medicine, and art. Standing on the observation tower is an astronomer with a quadrant probing the secrets of the heavens. And to the left we see a Jewish wise man studying in a great library".

Alien: Resurrection (1997) was an objectionable movie on many levels, but art direction, creature and hardware design, the more technical and visually artistic aspects of the movie, surely were crowd-pleasers. The pirate spaceship "Betty" was one of my favorite things from the movie.
I was drawn to this building’s unique shape and nickname.
It’s memorialized here with a time-lapse exposure of the stars trailing above…just before lift-off
Affectionately know in the Bozeman community as the “Spaceship”,
this automobile showroom was designed and built in 1968 in the “Googie” style,
a favorite of car dealerships because buildings in that style were eye-catching
and “highly visible” to drivers passing at high speeds.

Alright, I know there is no Spaceship Earth Friday but I wanted to let everyone know that we have a ton of great photos of Spaceship Earth posted on WDW Photography today. Readers sent in their own photos all week and I would definitely suggest checking them out, there are some great shots there. WDW Photography - Spaceship Earth Reader Photos
This shot was very much an accident. I had the fisheye on my camera from when I was shooting the outside of Spaceship Earth. I had decided to take one last ride on it but forgot to switch the lens before getting on. I decided to see what I could get with the fisheye and to my surprise I got a few worth keeping. It is nice to have a few wide angle shots of the different scenes, though some are so close together that you end up with two scenes in one shot. This was my favorite of the ones that came out.
Have a great weekend.
