Monorail Monday
Future World, Epcot, Walt Disney World
I am staying at Disney with today’s post as it was time for me to add another monorail image to my collection. Although I went to Epcot for the Flower & Garden Festival on my one day in March, I really enjoy grabbing images of the monorail throughout Future World. I did capture a few images of the monorail gliding through the flowers lining the area between Future World and World Showcase.
There is a wonderful contrast to the futuristic monorail and the organic feel of this area in front of The Land Pavilion that is a favorite. I was very happy with the light on the tree and the almost perfect reflection in the water. Of course, I had to put in a request very early for the puffy white clouds otherwise the sky would be very boring.
Star Wars Weekend, May 2012
Yesterday might be known as Star Wars Day and May the Fourth but today is Revenge of the Fifth!. This is from my first solo trip to Disney and also my first Star Wars Weekend. I tried a little something different with this image to help Darth Goofy stand out more from the crowd. I added a slight radial blur. Not sure if it totally works but half the fun of photography is trying out different creative looks.
May the 4th Be With You
On this unofficial Star Wars Day (May the 4th Be With You) I thought it appropriate to share Jedi Mickey from one of the Star Wars Weekends in 2015. Unless you want to stand in line for a photo opportunity (which feels slightly uncomfortable for me when I go alone) your best bet to catch the characters is during the parade.
Italy Pavilion, World Showcase, Epcot
I always enjoy stopping to watch the entertainment at the parks when I visit. There are more than a few favorites at each, although Disney has done a good job at switching out some long time fan favorites. Alas, the show must go on…
I have never stayed to watch the Tuscan flag throwing show in the Italy Pavilion. I’m glad that I did. It is an interesting show to watch. I’m not sure if it is because I am waiting for a flag to be dropped or the possibility that someone would get hit, the show held my interest. There is a lot of movement during the show and I practiced trying to capture that movement/energy within my picture.
