Haunted Mansion floating head pic

[El Nebuloso]

Hi All,

A while back someone posted a shot of Madame Leota (AKA the floating head in the HM) and asked if anyone else had managed to get this shot. Well it took three rides and about a dozen or so shots, but here is what I came up with -

50mm f1.8 1/40s ISO3200 spot metered on the face manual focus.

I know that the ride has been redone, and the face has changed a bit, but it was still a challenging (and fun) shot to try to get.

I'm impressed.

I'll second that!

I just put my camera down when on that ride....

Nice peek at something new on the ride also, thanks.

That is such a great shot and so close up! Here is my shot from a previous visit! (mine is from Disneyland).

Both of those are awesome shots. I can tell what I will be trying on my next trip. Whenever that will be.

After seeing this thread prior to our visit to DL last week, I was inspired to try and get this shot. It's a pretty tough one to get to be sure but these are a couple of my better ones......

And, while I was in HM I was able to get a quick shot of another floating head of sorts, Santa Jack on the ceiling after the room stretched. I wasn't prepared for it but saw it just in time to get a quick snap......

Those are all amzing shots. HM is my favourite ride at Disney and I'd love to learn how to take good pics inside it.
