WDW in B&W – WBW02
Tomorrowland, Magic Kingdom, Walt Disney World
Do you ever get a concept for an image in your head and then when you attempt to execute it just doesn’t look right? That was me yesterday morning. I had an idea for something I thought would look cool and the conditions appeared to be in my favor (at least at home). When I arrived at my locations the sky was clear with nothing to help add color and interest to my concept. I tried! I really did but it was just not working, so I bought some donut holes and went back home to drown my sorrows… LOL!
I’ll keep the concept in the back of my head for another day.
What you get instead is another look at my Walt Disney World in Black & White series. I’m including the original color version as well for this post as I think it works as an interesting image too. I like the starkness of the all white Space Mountain building against a cloud-filled sky with just a hint of additional color from the sign. It might actually be a stronger image than my conversion to B&W.

Are you at least going to incorporate the donut holes into you next image or were they sadly eaten in a fit of hunger? I like the color Space Mountain shot. I think the black and white space Mt. shot might benefit if you made the “blue” sky areas darker and if you could bring up any texture in the clouds, but that is just me talking…

Or convert to black and white with more contrast, as Joanie said, and retain the green in the sign.
Joanie & Carol… I had that same thought about the sky and clouds once I posted the image and compared it to the Expedition Everest image. Here is another version: http://goo.gl/gK6Boz
