Antiquing at the Grand Floridian

Posted on by Lisa Berton
Modern day cars are seen all over Walt Disney World property and they belong to or are rented by you. Here and there you might spot a cool vintage car that makes you say, “Oooooh.” If you’re a car lover, like my mom, you’ll quickly take notice of the prop cars Disney has scattered around … Continue reading "Antiquing at the Grand Floridian"

Photographing Walt Disney World Resorts from the Water

Posted on by Scott Thomas
Of all the forms of transportation at Walt Disney World, I enjoy the water transportation the most. You can choose to be in open air or inside comfort, they do not move too fast and there is something about being on the water which is relaxing to me.

Travel Photography at Walt Disney World

Posted on by Scott Thomas
Really, Scott? Isn’t the title redundant? We all take travel photos at Walt Disney World, don’t we? Well, yes and no. While photos taken at any Disney property can be considered travel photographs, do they tell a story? Do they give someone looking at the photo a sense of place? Travel photography should do both. … Continue reading "Travel Photography at Walt Disney World"

Zooming in on the Grand Floridian Resort and Spa

I am on a boat. OK, a ferry to be precise and I’m heading to the Magic Kingdom from the Ticket and Transportation Center or the TTC for you Disney acronym enthusiasts (coughScottcough). Before setting sail, I fired off these six photos aimed at the Grand Floridian Resort and Spa, to demonstrate the all mighty … Continue reading "Zooming in on the Grand Floridian Resort and Spa"

High Above the Monorail

Posted on by Lisa Berton
Getting a bird’s eye view of a monorail at Walt Disney World only happens in two locations that I’m aware of. The first is from high level floors at the Contemporary Resort across the way from the entrance and exit to the monorail. The other is out a few windows at the Grand Floridian. My … Continue reading "High Above the Monorail"
