    The Jeweled Dragon Acrobats at the China Pavilion in Epcot

I really wasn't planning on taking pictures at this but I just decided near the end to take a...

    A few Haunted Mansion pictures

    I need to check that when I get back. I can tell you it was on the higher side. I have a Sony A7s and I want to say it was around 30-50,000 ISO

    A few Haunted Mansion pictures

    i found that lens to be very fun to use and at.95 you can really do shallow depth of field. I was thinking of posting some of my images from Star Wars Launch bay that really shows what shallow depth of field can be done with that lens.

    Epcot Member Lounge questions

    they have a assortment of snacks and even better soda machines. nice place to hang out a refuel. I have heard from cast members, they will start to require you to have your hard member card and of course ID.

    Disney After Hours

    we were there last week and did not hear anything about free tickets. We did end up going to the after hours event and I would say I think they had 2,000-4000 in the park. Of course it is hard to tell. The park is huge and it was empty but we did see people. I don't think Disney needs this...

    DSLR in Parks

    I have a black rapid strap I have used for years. Overall I love this strap, except that it does bounce a lot when walking. This year I will also be taking my new strap, the peak design "leash" strap. I have been using this one for a few weeks and it does feel very comfortable and the camera...

    Photoshop -- to bite the bullet and buy or not?

    I agree with photo_chick. photoshop would be over kill for what you are looking for. Lightroom would be a better, cheaper option and has a lower learning curve to it..
