Lookout

Cocoa Beach, FL

Maybe it is the mid-winter blues, although it hasn’t been much of a winter, but I have been perusing my images of Florida lately. Could be it is time for a trip, or anticipation for the one in May. Anyway, the lifeguard tower and the pier at Cocoa Beach from last June…

Evening at Disney Springs

Disney Springs, Walt Disney World

Well, I’m on another of my pilgrimages to Walt Disney World. I arrived late Saturday afternoon in Orlando and was to my hotel by 5:30pm. I dropped everything off in my room, grabbed the camera and headed out to Disney Springs (shopping/eating/entertainment). I was looking to capture a few sunset images and maybe a couple of atmosphere views after the sun went down and the place lit up for the night.

As I worked my way around through the Saturday evening crowds I was drawn to Chef Art Smith’s Homecomin’ venue. It looked busy and me without a reservation, but I was lucky enough to score a seat at the bar. Hot damn! Good food! I’m already thinking I need to find a way to go back before my trip is over… LOL

Anyway, back to images. Quick Florida showers had rolled through the area before my arrival and the clouds hung around long enough to provide a little drama for my sunsets. The first image is a panoramic view of Lake Buena Vista. I used eight images to create this view.

The next two images of opposite views from the Marketplace area. You’ll notice the first includes Ghirardelli because I’m a chocoholic! The second has the Lego store since I’m still basically a kid.

I had a really good time in spite of the crowds. I hadn’t planned on going back to Disney Springs this trip but it wouldn’t be hard to convince me to go. I’m thinking before the week is up I’ll be back in the tick of it, running around with my camera and looking for more great food.
