Want to give a 'shout out' today. For anyone that enjoys Marlton Moms post go check out her photos of WDW and Star Wars weekend. Not only is she verbally entertaining, she can also capture quite a visual!

Oh the talent on this little board!
Why thank you Mickey T.!! Photography is my passion in life and one of the best 'target rich' environments for a photographer is Disney World.
This is a work in progress as I have many pictures to process and post. There just isn't enough hours in the day for me to do it all in one shot.
If you are in need of a Disney fix, check in from time to time and you might find something you like. Hopefully it will put a big smile on your face!
Are they this year's pictures?
The ones that are on the main page are this years. As I process and add a picture it just goes to the front of the 'line'. I will put all of this year's pictures in folders organized by subject once I get everything processed and organized. Pictures from our last trip to Disney in December of 2009 are in a separate folder which can be accessed by clicking on the thumbnails to the right.
Thanks for the heads up. The photos ARE FANTASTIC! Great captions, too.
But a friendly warning- the speedo picture "rears" its ugly head in the middle of page 4. I WARNED YOU!
Thank you Dee! When appropriate, I use the caption section to try and set the scene, make a Star Wars joke or capture the moment, like when I got the picture of the character Ahsoka Tano and Linda, who is a devoted fan of Star Wars weekends.
I did a lot of research to determine the best spots to take Star Wars Weekends pictures and, by necessity, it was imperative that I stake out my spot hours in advance of the event.
That wasn't as bad as it sounds because I got to hang out with the other folks who were just as nutty as I was about the whole deal. Let me tell you, these people were the most fun bunch ever (besides ya'll on the BC/YC thread!) and we chatted the time away. I got to find out some really fun inside stuff, like what it's like to work SWW for Disney as a volunteer in the
501st legion (People who costume themselves as Dark Side Characters from Star Wars and make appearances to raise $$ for charity).
I also found out that the Tinkerbell who flies around the castle on the wire before the fireworks is a GUY!
I can honestly say the thought never crossed my mind but now when that Tinkerbell comes out I am looking to see if 'she' is carrying a 'package'.
So keep checking in from time to time to see what I added and feel free to leave a comment if the mood strikes you.
Yes, I think just the Star Wars photos are from this trip. I believe she is putting them up a little at a time, when they are "ready for prime-time". Haven't seen the BC pictures yet, but I am looking forward to seeing them.
That is correct Dee! The BC pictures will have to wait until I come across them. I took around 2,000 pictures but many of them are multiple exposures of the same subject and some are ones that didn't quite turn out the way I wanted. The ones that I am posting are the cream of the crop and since I have that kind of volume it's better if I just go through the pix chronologically because that's how I have it organized in my head. ( I know, 'organized' and my 'head' in the same sentence... Scary!)
So thank you again for all the nice comments and stayed tuned to Marlton Mom's flickr account and get your fresh and tasty Disney picture fix.

..so we have now changed to the YC! ??? Just when I was getting comfortable with the idea of staying at the BC...
