wdwensel.. your castle fireworks shot is really great, and thanks for your compliments on mine! Definitely blown out but I sort of like the effect of the top spires rising out of the inferno

Circusgirl.. I like that castle shot, very serene looking.

°O°Joe.. great processing. The oversharp B&W look works very well for the mood of the shot! And thanks for the compliments on the Pooh shot and P&PP fireworks shot!

We-Luv-Disney.. amazing castle fireworks shot!

We-Luv-Disney - Your fireworks shots on your pbase site were a HUGE inspiration for me and basically taught me everything I know regarding fireworks pics. But this one you just posted takes the cake.

wdwensel Great picture LOVE IT Do you mind me asking how you did it ?

Thank you! And yes, you may. I sent you a PM.

Practicing my quoting: Cool lighted sidewalk and ghost shot!

If this works, than thanks Quiltymom and Joe!

It worked, and thank you!

Berni'sDH, nice portrait with Spaceship Earth in the background... I like the depth of field in this shot...


Basically what Jeff said - but also it made the most sense for me with the D40, since it has an internal focusing motor, which I need unless I want to manual focus... also, I found that 30mm is very comfortable and a good average. I think 50mm might be a little close on some of the dark rides and indoor shots, but I don't know, I've seen some pretty great ones...

Thanks, Joe for the compliments! And thanks once more for your explanation as to why you like the Sigma 30mm lens- I may have to consider getting one myself sometime in the future, although I have been pretty happy with my 50mm 1.8.

Since I am still up with insomnia I'll go ahead and do my POTD. Maybe its' Asian influence will have a peaceful effect on me!

Mickey D's Fries Anyone ?

 

[cindyfan]

I can only dream that I am standing here right now!!!
Waiting for the rope drop!!!

Wow..... just noticed that they need to get the gardeners in there to trim up those small bushes/plants in front of the wall....

(sorry to post a second pic.... ) but look at the difference in the landscaping from June (below) to Jan (above)

 

[racheljessicasara]

Good Morning!

Circusgirl, beautiful picture of the castle. It looks so calm and peaceful and there's no one in sight... You've been sharing some amazing pictures - please, keep them coming

We-Luv-Disney, you've done it again... you're the king of the Cinderella Castle with fireworks pictures in my book! Beautiful capture - I don't know how you do it...

Mickey28, I like this picture with the kids in the tea cup

Gdad, spectacular Illuminations shot!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

°O°Joe - what an amazingly simple and beautiful capture!

Joe, this is a simple yet amazing shot!

Wow Joe, this is your best shot yet!!! Amazing!!!

°O°Joe.. great processing. The oversharp B&W look works very well for the mood of the shot! And thanks for the compliments on the Pooh shot and P&PP fireworks shot!

Joe - I love the angle and bw. Where were you standing? On a boat? Your photos really get me thinking about photography and how it's all "in the mind's eye."

Thank you all... Kathy - this shot was taken from the Liberty Belle as it returned to the dock after cruising around the Rivers of America.
