International Flower & Garden Festival
Epcot, Walt Disney World
Next to the Mexico Pavilion in Epcot, before the Donald Duck meet & greet area, is a pathway to the side entrance of the pyramid. Along this path you can find a variety of Orchids. In the Spring during the Flower & Garden Festival is your best opportunity. Once I found this area I make a point to return every visit to see what flowers are available. I can always find a beautiful subject for my camera…

The best way to spend my lunch hour was exploring Old Erie Canal Park in DeWitt with my macro lens on the camera. Typically, I go to the park for the landscape pictures, but today I was looking for the small details. Off the normal path and into the woods along Butternut Creek I found an interesting section of vine. I liked how the very end wrapped around itself…

International Flower & Garden Festival, Epcot
I did go to Walt Disney World for the International Flower & Garden Festival. I found a lot of beautiful flowers. I didn’t even try to learn their names, I only photographed them.

WDW in B&W – WBW18
Hollywood Studios, Walt Disney World
I’m back home now. My Spring trip to WDW is over. I had a good time up until Wednesday night. I’m not sure if it was something I ate or a quick hit of something but I did not enjoy my last day. I spent the entire day curled up in my room. Finally around 6pm I ventured out to attempt to eat some solid food. That whole adventure is the reason I have been quiet on my blog for the last few days.
I had been posting pics from each of the parks as I explored them throughout the week. Wednesday was my Hollywood Studios day. The park is undergoing a major renovation with the addition of Star Wars and Pixar Place areas. When it is done it will definitely be a park to spend the day at. For now though I was able to get most of my rides in by noon. I grabbed a quick bite at the Brown Derby Lounge and then headed over to Epcot to explore more of the Flower & Garden Festival. My plan was to return at sunset to grab more images around the Studios. It worked out well, I had a great day.
Right around sunset the park moves a stage and video screens from in front of the Grauman’s Chinese Theatre replica. This building originally housed The Great Movie ride but is currently under renovations to a Mickey & Minnie ride. I was never a fan of the big Sorcerer’s hat placed in front of this theatre. I understood way it had to be there but I was happy to see it go. Once the “junk” in front was moved I raced over to grab a few images. I always think of old Hollywood when I see this building. I guess that is why I processed this one as B&W…
