Finally looking through (more and a new less watermarked verision)

[pyrxtc]

my vacation photo from Deember. This is in my top 3 and I knew that you all would love it as well. It doesn't have my kids in it but still one of my favs ! What do you think ?? !!

 

[Miss Kelly]

I replied to your post over at Mpix, but I'll say it again here. I Love This Photograph!! I would love to see more.

I ahve more, just haven't had time to mark them for posting yet. Tomorrow after work I'll be back wth more. But, this is what I get with an 8 am CRT.

at the risk of sound "contrary"...are you really that concerned that people are going to hijack your pic of Cinderella's castle? It's a great pic indeed, but that self-protective label all over it really takes away from it. Maybe a few less labels would still serve your intent.

Very nice!

Very nice!

have to agree here, kind of ruins the effect and makes it difficult to really enjoy the photo.

Have to say that I agree with the others that the watermarks really detract from the image, which is beautiful.

What kind of post-processing did you do? The light is lovely. Was it taken in the early a.m.?

 

[DebºoºS]

Nice pic thanks for posting it Have to agree with the others about the watermark though.

 

[Groucho]

Nice vibrant colors but again the watermarking is very distracting. If you must watermark the entire image, I would do it as lightly as possible, nearly invisible, while leaving a subtle watermark in the corner. The point of watermarking the whole thing is to prevent someone from taking your photo, cropping the one in the corner, and reselling it - but to protect against that, the watermark can be nearly invisible, and changing the color levels can then reveal it if it's very light.

Let me jump in on this boat also. It really takes away from the picture.

At the risk of starting a flame war... I also would not worry about people stealing it too much b/c nobody is allowed to sell a shot like that without Disney's written consent anyway. (Read as virtually impossible to get) You consent to them holding copyright protection by entering Disney property. You still hold the copyright to the image, but only for personal use. It is not like they could use it without paying you. They have very smart and very ruthless lawyers, so I personally would never risk selling one.

Some people do sell pics of WDW, but technically they do not legally have the right to do it.

Excellent color. Beautiful light. I like it a lot. By looking at the shadows it looks like it was early morning. Were you on a tour or something. This is one of the reasons I like December. Late sunrise can coninside with an early breakfast (8am or so) at CP or CRT which can lead to wonderful light before 8am and give the opportunity for pictures like this.

I also agree with the others. My first thought was woooh, helloooo water mark.

 

[handicap18]

Just got a chance to look at your EXIF data.... 8:02am on 12/5. We'll be there the week before that date this year. I may have to get an early ADR one day!! NICE!!!

 

[pyrxtc]

I thought I'd show you more and a "less" watermarked version.

Justa few more. Still ahve 800 pics to go through.

 

[Miss Kelly]

Wow. Those look awesome. I'm dying to go back to WDW. I didn't have my good camera when we went the last time (nearly 2 years ago).

 

[Dan Murphy]

I agree on all accounts, great picture/s, the watermarking seriously detracts.

 

[Shifletjl]

Wow. Thanks for sharing. I hope you will share more photos from your trip. I especially like the picture of the night shot of the castle w/reflection. Oh, and the watermark was much improved. Thanks, I'll be looking for more.

 

[PoohJen]

Stunning; beautiful photographs! Thanks for sharing!

 

[donaldduck1967]

I'm just curious, did you do any post processing? If so what did you do? Also what camera did you use?
thanks

 

[Snurk71]

Yeah, my colors don't look that vibrant out of the camera. Curious if I'm just a bad photographer (I know I'm not a good one), or if there is some post work done to really bring out the color. The castle picture is particularly striking to me (we can all compare to a castle picture we've taken).

 

[spoon2003]

Nicely done! Much better without the watermarks

 

[jann1033]

love the night time castle one!
and have to laugh from blue sky in #1 to #2 clouds just shows how changeable dec/jan weather can be
