Here’s another shot from my first night at Disney California Adventure. They weren’t quite done putting up the seasonal purple lights yet so it’s kind of a unique shot. Unfortunately, this was also the night security was pushing very hard so it’s one of very...
It’s the most beautiful sight in all the kingdom, the back side of castle. Much like Cinderella Castle, although I do love the classic front view I found myself preferring the back-side view of Sleeping Beauty Castle as well. I think it’s because there are...
Say the title like Ru-fi-o from Hook and then chant it over and over. Anyways… this is another great little dark ride at Disneyland. It’s not terribly difficult to shoot (other than the blue fairy, I missed her twice!). Shot with my Nikon 28 1.4...
