Disney Pic of the Week – World Showcase Entertainers

Posted on by Lisa Berton
Upon arriving at Epcot, grab an entertainment schedule and you’ll see on the backside, a horizontal time and location chart of musicians, actors, characters, etc… They can all be found within World Showcase, a lively portion of the park dedicated to countries around the globe. This week Scott and I salute the men and women … Continue reading "Disney Pic of the Week – World Showcase Entertainers"

Jiminy Cricket

It’s animal week here at the Picture This! blogs. As Scott said, animals can be found in all sorts of shapes, sizes, and formats. A consciencous little fella, a grasshopper in fact, is a dear friend of Pinocchio, Geppeto, Figaro, and Cleo. You can be his friend, too. Jiminy Cricket sometimes visits Rafiki’s Planet Watch … Continue reading "Jiminy Cricket"

A Vivid Glance at Disneyland

Posted on by Lisa Berton
I’m going to make this blog short and sweet. Playing around with my Canon PowerShot SX30 IS, I took a few shots when the train we were riding (Disneyland Railroad) pulled into Mickey’s Toontown station. Seated with my friend Lisa and her 2 little boys, I quickly grabbed 2 snapshots. For the first image, I … Continue reading "A Vivid Glance at Disneyland"

Roller Coaster Series: The Incredible Hulk

Posted on by Lisa Berton
Bag and hat holders rejoice! While the wild portion of your crew is loop-dee-looing and clutching onto the safety harness, you can relax and take photos. This is the start of a mini-series (before it becomes an interntational silver screen gem) of photographing steel, wooden, and other solid building materials, roller coasters. With each new … Continue reading "Roller Coaster Series: The Incredible Hulk"

Disney Pic of the Week – Sunset Blvd

Posted on by Lisa Berton
Neon lights shine along the street lined with shops and eateries. Hopeful talents wait to be discovered. Hotel guests check in and Aerosmith fans take off for a unique concert experience. It’s Sunset Blvd and it sits perpendicular to Hollywood Blvd (unlike in CA where the streets run parallel) at Disney’s Hollywood Studios theme park. … Continue reading "Disney Pic of the Week – Sunset Blvd"

American Adventure, a Telescope, and Paul Revere

Posted on by Lisa Berton
Hear ye! Hear ye! Come one and all to American Adventure where colonial days come to life except at the counter service eatery. Pheasant is not on the menu. Situated among wooden barrels, presumably filled with air, a wood and brass telescope can be used to look out over World Showcase Lagoon or down the … Continue reading "American Adventure, a Telescope, and Paul Revere"

Two weeks ago my blog entry encouraged my readers to try photographing in black and white or to at least convert some color photographs into black and white to see the difference. A few of you sent in photos and I’m delighted to post them. This challenge will run for the rest of 2012 so … Continue reading "Black and White Challenge – Entries"

Disney Pic of the Week – Flags and Banners

Posted on by Lisa Berton
As if Disney parks don’t transfer your mind to another place enough as it is, the extra touches found everywhere add even more elements to really cement happy thoughts. Some of those smaller and not necessarily noticed items are banners and flags that flap in the breeze. I for one have always wanted the heavier … Continue reading "Disney Pic of the Week – Flags and Banners"
