Disney Picture of the day Part 6

[Tink rules]

Yeah, that is pretty much the case. Since going digital, I do shoot "everything", although a lot of them are throwaways. This Primeval Hurl shot is a good example of that; I shot a couple dozen and only got one or two that were even decent, this being one of them. Neither was exactly what I was hoping for, though. Mrs. YEKCIM, also known as Commando Mom, does not have much patience with my photographic pursuits, which is probably a good thing, as we would never get to ride anything if I was allowed to shoot at my leisure. Most of my 07/07 stuff was shot on-the-run, but I did the best I could under the circumstances. My goal was to have about 18 months' worth of POTD material, since it's doubtful I'll be going back to WDW before 12/08, if then. I'd LOVE to have a day to just wander a park with camera in hand and really "explore" the photo op's. Doubt that will happen anytime soon, but I can dream!

Ok... it might take a second job to afford this one...

Send the DW to the SPA for the afternoon and you go wandering!!!

I'm sure she'll be ok with it...

Marge: I got the Margarita at a booth next to the cantina,,yummy,,,

YES! I even bought the hat!

Thanks Carrie! I can't wait- just a few more weeks!!! I LOVE that you bought the hat!!! Hey, if you're having a margarita that looks that good, you may as well have a hat to match the feeling that goes along with enjoying said beverage!!! My kids (and dh) would probably kill me if I walked out with a hat like that!! -- humm, perhaps it could turn into a solo tour of Epcot!! -- may have to rethink that hat thing!!!
Blessings!

Hi everyone!!!! I haven't been here in awhile and I'd like to share the most magical moment of my life.
My DD and her friend got to ride the Sleeping Beauty float in 2003. My DD is the one in the middle with the red shirt.

And here she is getting a helping hand from Prince Charming.

My POTD:

Nice one Ed- Perfect example of a great shot that at least I would have never tried with film.

Excellent Joe- All I can say is wow.

My POTD's - They kind of go together... Coke-Floats at Ghirardelli

Gosh, what BEAUTIFUL eyes she has!! Love the shot.

That is the one good one out of a couple dozen attempts. I was not using my VR lens...not that it would have helped...

Since the price of CF cards have dropped I have picked up several large capacity cards just be able to shoot a lot of photos on my trips.

Each trip I try to have a list of things to shot or at least a theme to cover. My next trip I am planning on shooting for HDR photos.

I am fortunate enough to be able to go to WDW a couple of times a year but I still like to take many, many shots. Never too many in my opinion. It helps that so many of you on this thread inspire me.

 

[GoofyBaby]

Awwww, thank you Joe! It looks great! I am not offended at all, rather honored that you'd do this for me. I think I'll have to have this enlarged now and frame it like you said!

I hope you don't mind... I don't usually do this in fear that the OP would be offended, but I just had to with this picture... it's such an awesome picture. I'd be hanging the full size version on the wall if I were you.

But any way, I doctored your pic up (I thought it was just a touch washed out) with a few clicks on Picassa:

 

[quiltymom]

I thought I was bad. You take pics of pretty much everything don't you... . Work for me. If I took any more pics on my vacations, my DW would hang me.

The only problem is that I have just recently discovered the Picture Game thread, which is completely different from the Photo Game thread. Now I'll be taking photos of just about anything and everything so I'll have a stash for that! It's rather addicting.

And YEKCIM, I love the illustration in your signature! I'll have to show that one to DH.

Gdad - that last photo in the rain... Wow. Just wow. How soaked did y'all get?

Here's mine for today. It's more sentimental than anything, but it's DD & DS getting ready to wake Tinkerbell:

This pic is making me motion sick just looking at it!!! LOL!

Okay it's not the prettiest POTD, but it was taken at Disney. Don't remember which park it was taken at. DH was taking pictures, (he doesn't do many rides, he likes to take pictures and people watch) and decided to photograph a fly that couldn't fly. I do not like bugs, but I thought this was cool. Sorry if it makes anyone queasy!!

 

[LUVMYTINK]

I have been lurking around this thread for awhile . Just want to say how wonderful everyones pictures are. Really getting me in the mood for our trip next month

Funny, now I have seen it all. I wonder if that fly had a park hopper ticket with the Disney Dining Plan?
