I think the first long post was from Sherry. I use a DSLR, but I think most of the photos in the thread are from Point and shoot cameras. I hope you get to go -- you will love it!
I wish I could take credit - I am usually responsible for many a long post
- but 21 Yankees was the first one to post
photos on this thread, and then I jumped in with some pictures after, and then Disney Dreams did, etc., etc. I posted the long list of all the treats and goodies.
Yes, most of those photos that I took and posted here were actually taken on an old 35mm camera, which was on its last legs and got rained on last December at DLR, but I needed to finish off all my 35 mm film before I laid it to rest completely. I also used a 'disposable' digital camera as well. Nowhere near the level of the excellent photos taken by DisneySuiteFreak, but steeped in DLR holiday magic nonetheless!!
This year I gave my new Canon SD880 P&S a whirl for Halloweentime at DLR (I was so excited to see those chubby gingerbread men cookies with ears again), and while the photos are okay (what few I was able to take, that is), I think I could do better. My friend was trying to use a Nikon CoolPix to take nighttime Halloween photos and those were as blurry as blurry can be!! I think a little tripod is necessary if you want to shoot anything at night with a P&S. I want to try my new P&S at DLR for Christmastime.
Anyway, let us consider this thread now officially 'bumped,' which we need to do, as the holiday season begins at DLR one week from tomorrow!!!
