Perspective is defined as ” to look through”. For photographers, it means to look at something differently. To find new perspectives. At Walt Disney World, where people take millions of photographs each year, finding new perspectives can seem a daunting task. I look at it as finding “my” perspective and sometimes a little help can open up whole new ways of looking at things.
The photo below of Minnie Mouse’s statuette was pointed out to me by another photographer. I have seen similar photos on flickr, too. But, I had never seen it at dusk with an orange castle softly focused in the background which turned out to be “my” perspective on this subject.

Great pic! I love it.
Where is this statue located in the MK?
Scott replies: There are six statuettes located around the hub where the Partners statue is located (the one with Walt Disney holding Mickey Mouse’s hand). Minnie Mouse is one of them.
How magical 🙂
Thanks for the tip on leaning over railing, I’m short, will I be able to do it?
Thanks,

Scott replies: Hmmm…I’ll have to check back with you on it’s height. Anyone know?
This is great!!! I’m getting my first SLR for Christmas and I can’t wait! I love this blog, so many good ideas, and awesome photos!!! 🙂
Scott replies: Thanks for the comment, Jennifer! There’s a lot here on the Picture This! blog which will help you learn how to use the new camera.
Love this photograph! I might have to try for a version of it when we’re next at Walt Disney World.
Scott replies: Be prepared to lean over the railing. Had to distort myself to get this angle. Well worth the effort!
