Captain Hook is on the Run

Posted on by Lisa Berton
During a solo trip several years back, I came upon some knowledge. Characters currently performing in front of the castle would run out from the side, around the corner (in Fantasyland) and then through Cinderella Castle back out onstage.

Posted on by Scott Thomas
Last week I talked about how I photograph fireworks at Walt Disney World. This week I will use the same technique of a tripod, cable shutter release and setting the shutter speed to Bulb in Manual exposure mode. This allows me to control how long the shutter will be open.
