Last Set of Photo Bombs from Readers

Posted on by Lisa Berton
This topic started back in May when I wrote a blog about sneaking into photos for fun. Nowadays the hip cats (kats? katz? Top Cat?) call it photo bombing. I invited readers to send in their own photos containing surprise guests. If you missed them, you can view them through these magical links. Disney Photobomb … Continue reading "Last Set of Photo Bombs from Readers"

Disney Pic of the Week – Trams

Posted on by Lisa Berton
Beep. Beep. Driver, you are clear. Every Disney Parks regular knows the drill and most of us probably answer to honking cars at home with the scripted response. Let’s face it, we’re special and we love trams. Trams take our aching bodies and blistered feet back to the vast white line-painted endless cement lot where … Continue reading "Disney Pic of the Week – Trams"

Al’s Toy Barn Flashback

Posted on by Lisa Berton
For my part of remembering attractions that are now closed, I turn the clock back to when Toy Story’s meet and greet was located off Streets of America. The set consisted of a facade of Al’s Toy Barn, owned by bad guy, Al McWhiggin. One can only imagine the non-stop nightmares Buzz and Woddy suffered … Continue reading "Al’s Toy Barn Flashback"

Disney Pic of the Week – Hollywood Studios

Posted on by Lisa Berton
Disney’s Hollywood Studios wants you to live the Hollywood life by surrounding you with stunt shows, singers and dancers, endless jay walking opportunities, waiters who are really comedians, and over priced food and drink. At least the streets are cleaner. The Great Movie Ride is a great ride about great movies and movies perceived as … Continue reading "Disney Pic of the Week – Hollywood Studios"

Paradise Pier Mouse Ear Hat

Posted on by Lisa Berton
Disney’s California Adventure is the only park I saw being built and experienced right when it opened. That was pretty cool. It has changed a great deal over the years and some bad ideas like Superstar Limo closed while good attractions like Soarin’ is cloned over at Epcot, albeit without the totally radical airplane hangar … Continue reading "Paradise Pier Mouse Ear Hat"

Disney Pic of the Week – Balloons

Posted on by Lisa Berton
Before we begin this week’s theme, I want to offer up a “do over” of last week. As it turned out, Scott and I had similar shots of the exact same clock in Tomorrowland. Great Scott! Although, my writing was funnier. As such, I am posting this other clock photograph from Main St, USA. Great. … Continue reading "Disney Pic of the Week – Balloons"

Understanding White Balance III

Posted on by Lisa Berton
It seems that every two years I write a blog about white balance. Each one is different than the next. In the first blog I used outdoor images on an overcast day and a set of hostage-held plush under targeted lighting. My second entry showcased skin tones under mixed lighting. This time around, we’ll look … Continue reading "Understanding White Balance III"
