Hollywood Holidays

Echo Lake, Hollywood Studios, Walt Disney World

I had to wait what seemed like an eternity for the tree lights to come on. The park announced the lighting of the tree at 5:15pm but it wasn’t until 5:48pm that they eventually came on. To be honest, by the time the lights came on the color in the sky was gone, but an image from five minutes earlier had the sky I wanted. So technically, this view didn’t happen last night… 🙂

Holiday Decorations

With Christmas just a few days away the theme this week was holiday decorations. When I think of decorations I immediately think of holiday lights. Now I have already captured some of the big display in downtown Rome but there were more opportunities in the city. I also thought I would get a little creative with my last image as I played with a candle in front of my tree.

Holiday Bed-n-Breakfast

I should probably label this a test as I hope to return on a not so snowy night to get a clearer image of my neighbor’s bed-n-breakfast. I was walking down to the corner to get an image of the historic church’s front door for the latest theme but I couldn’t pass up this view. I forget how nice my neighbor decorates his house for the holidays. Too bad there was some flurries in the air but I’m sure I’ll be able to get a better night to improve this image.

Holiday on Display

Thursday evenings trip into Rome, NY for my images of churches reminded me of the holiday displays the city assembles. Although the temperature was not as pleasing last night I couldn’t resist making another trip into town to see what I could capture. I also decided to leave the fish-eye lens on the camera and attempt to capture as much of the lights as possible.
