Rivers of Light at Disney’s Animal Kingdom

Posted on by Scott Thomas
I enjoyed Rivers of Light at Disney’s Animal Kingdom. It is not a show with a lot of “Wow” factor like a fireworks show. The music, floats and use of projections on water is very soothing. I will say my experience in watching it was not enjoyable. I saw Rivers of Light in its third … Continue reading "Rivers of Light at Disney’s Animal Kingdom"

Disney Pic of the Week: Watercraft

Posted on by Scott Thomas
One of the reasons I enjoy staying at either the Port Orleans Riverside or French Quarter Resorts is the ease of getting to Disney Springs using the water ferries on the Sassagoula River. They are a relaxing way to travel to and fro the resorts and the re-imagined shopping and entertainment complex. Memphis Miss water … Continue reading "Disney Pic of the Week: Watercraft"

Disney Pic of the Week: Epcot at Night

Night time in any Walt Disney World park or resort is magical. Use of lighting and shadows enhances the architecture’s colors and shapes. The Morocco pavilion in Epcot’s World Showcase is beautiful at night. The patterns found on the fountains and in the buildings is hard to pass up photographing them. The lighting after dark … Continue reading "Disney Pic of the Week: Epcot at Night"

Disney Pic of the Week: The Seas with Nemo & Friends

Posted on by Scott Thomas
The Seas of the world are ever moving, always in motion. I really liked how Disney captured that trait of the sea at The Living Seas when it first opened and kept it with the re-imagined The Seas with Nemo & Friends in Epcot’s Future World. The sign to the attraction sits in the middle … Continue reading "Disney Pic of the Week: The Seas with Nemo & Friends"

Illuminations at 28mm

Posted on by Scott Thomas
On my last trip to Walt Disney World, I went light by only bringing the Nikon AF-S 28-300mm f/3.5-5.6G VR lens.

Illuminations Holiday Tag at 28mm.Nikon … Continue reading "Illuminations at 28mm"

Reflective Walt Disney World

Posted on by Scott Thomas
If there is one thing most photographers can not pass up, it is a good reflection photo. Add Disney architecture in the reflection and I can not pass it up. Like the time I walked across the bridge from Discovery Island to Africa on a still morning to see the Harambe Theatre reflected in the … Continue reading "Reflective Walt Disney World"

The Tree of Life continues to dominate people’s attention as they emerge from the Oasis and travel over Discovery River bridge into Disney’s Animal Kingdom park. Imagineers over time have added new viewing locations, waterfalls and animal carvings. While I like the new ones, my favorite view of the Tree of Life is this waterfall … Continue reading "Disney Pic of the Week: Tree of Life"
