WOW! What a great picture, the color is great. :thumbsup2 What type of camera do you use?

Thanks for the kind words. I was very pleased with the pic; I think it is my favorite out of around 2000 pix I took last week. My camera is a Fuji S5200. Main advantages, at WDW, were the long tele end of the zoom range (380mm in 35mm equivalence) and ability to shoot in high ISO (the 5200 goes to ISO 1600, but is very noisy above 800). I've gone thru about half of my WDW pix so far and uploaded what I consider to be the best of the bunch. If interested in seeing the entire album (all shot with the 5200), go here: http://s76.photobucket.com/albums/j11/fasteddiew/DisneyWorld 2006/

I know what this is! I love it. I never thought to take this picture because I'm always afraid it will come out like a small dot like when there's a big full moon and I take a picture! Can't wait to be on this ride again soon!
 
I'm always in the mood ;)



I'm just getting in the mood for our next trip...

You did a great job taking pictures. I just can't seem to take any good ones, it doesn't matter what kind of camera I use. Thanks for sharing.

Honestly, having a long zoom range helps a lot. Most of the best shots I got last week were at the "telephoto" end of the lens. The 5200 has a 10X lens, which means that, at full tele, I'm shooting at around 380mm in 35mm film camera equivalence. That usually does at least three things: first, it compresses space, so things appear closer together than they really are; second, it usually blurs the background, at least a little, which gives some separation between the subject and the background; third, it allows me to "zoom in" on detail. I was very pleased with most of the shots I got but the S5200 is not the only camera with this kind of "reach". The Canon S2-IS/S3-IS and Sony H series (H1, H2, H5) all have a 36-432mm equivalent lens, which is even more versatile than the Fuji's.

There is a thread on the Photography Board that is titled, "Photos that the average tourist does not shoot", or something like that. It was my inspiration for looking past all the usual WDW "photo ops" for something a little different. You may want to check it out: http://disboards.com/showthread.php?t=1144547 for some ideas.

Some really cool shots on this thread, and I'm *not* talking about the few that I've posted.
