florida part II

Here are a few more pictures from our day at the Magic Kingdom. I was trying to keep up with our group of 5...so I didn't have a chance to snap any super creative photos. I was pretty much walking and snapping at the same time. But hopefully these will bring a little color to your day, or if you've been to Disney...it will bring back a few memories.

Are you still with me? Nothing creative, but I did have fun processing these shots. You know I have fun processing anything without a face. ;-)

Isn't it cool that this castle shot is SOOC? I cropped off a few heads along the bottom, but otherwise no editing. It was handheld at a 4000 ISO. I think I gave my camera a pat on the head after this shot. Good boy!

I knew we'd be seeing some fireworks in Florida and I meant to google how to shoot them. I can never remember. We weren't really in a good spot for fireworks when I took this shot; we were just getting off the "It's a Small World" boat ride. It was kind of a point and pray type shot. Not the best location, but I think it's pretty cool anyway.

I hope these pictures aren't causing a big snore-fest on my blog. I just don't want to overwhelm you with too many pictures in one day. I'll post a few pictures every day this week, and it looks like my favorite ones are going to come on Thursday when we went down to our old stomping ground in Ft. Lauderdale. But you can still come back tomorrow too, k?

Have a great one! :-)

I cannot wait to visit the Magical Kingdom! Soo want to go soon and take Dillon! Did TT love it? I was afraid Dillon wouldnt enjoy it at his age but then again hes a ball of energy and could probably fair better than I could a whole day! Hehe! Anyways the castle shot? Awesome! I would pat my camera on the head too, which btw my "new" canon 40D has much better ISO handling capabilities than my Sony did! Ive shot in 800 ISO indoors many times to a nearly noiseless photo! Awesomeness! The fireworks look amazing! Glad yall had so much fun! Sorry for soo many comments at once but I am catching up! ;)
