Thanks a ton!
I feel like this last trip I was finally able to get some truly awesome pictures. In fact, one of my favorite pictures ever I was able to get this last trip. It's funny, because I gravitate towards it and look at it all the time, though it's a technically not-so-great picture, and it's of the castle, which is not really my favorite icon or park... But I just love looking at it because I feel like I captured "Disney."
Last Kiss Goodnight by

I love the couple kissing in the foreground, but everybody I showed it to found somebody else that they loved that was quintessential Disney for them... One person liked the lady wearing the ears carrying the shopping bag because she was "loud and proud" Disney, somebody else liked the girl on the right all by herself because it was solitude in a busy place, somebody else pointed out the texter and thought it was funny that there was so much cool to look at and she was nose deep in her phone, somebody else noticed there's not a single child in the picture and commented on that (though I do see a stroller that's empty and possibly a child in the middle back... But in my other shots in this set, I actually think it's a gift bag that somebody is rooting through), the two guys waiting outside a gift shop, of course the woman talking animatedly in the front... It's kind of cool, I've never had a picture do that before. But I freely admit, I SUCK at storytelling pictures and am far better with landscapes and icons... But I love that I got something FINALLY that felt like it told a story.
Now comes the lie where I tell you I set up the shot, composed it perfectly, waited for perfect timing and clicked, as opposed to practically shooting over my left shoulder while running for the monorail because "oh look, the castle is purple!" LOL
