Where is that?

It's the monorail station outside the turnstiles to the Magic Kingdom.

Is that a hidden Mickey below his eye at the "8:00" position?? tilt your head to the left....

I see it. You are right. It's a perfect Mickey Head.

OK, that official confirms that I have completely lost my mind. I do not remember a turn like that going into MK. I always remember it as straight in. Time for the padded room. I think I remember a slight bend in the track but certainly nothing that sharp. Is there some trick photography going on there or have I really lost it.?

Can't speak as to your state of mind... but... foreshortening!

So you're saying that taken from a weird angle, it gives the illusion that it is a much sharper turn then it really is. Is that about correct? I hope so because I was about to schedule myself for a scan.

Yep! But again, not speaking as to your need for a scan or whatever: do what you need to do! Hehehehee...

When I was a little kid, I noticed sometimes on TV that certain things looked strange- like when they took a long shot of a car coming at you at a slight angle- the back end of the car would look funny. I asked the grown ups and they simply dismissed it. I figured it out on my own- that it was a long zoom shot, and of such a distance that the back end of the car was relatively the same distance as the front end of the car from where the camera was...

[PS: actually, it might be 'counter-foreshortening'.]

Beautiful clarity and color on that! (And why Mickey should not have articulated eyes!)

BTW, does anyone else find those off the shoulder <?> gowns out of place/character?

Heavens, even Mickey has to blink once in awhile. He's only human! ........Maybe I do need that scan.

Too much on the processing? Let me know.

As a 'portrait' of the TOL, it sucks: but as an art print, it is something real special! The ray thing going on up top really nails it! Very nice!
