Probably the worlds greatest example of lowlight photography.

Hi, I pride myself on not reading manuals or wasting time with actually handling cameras or having any useful knowledge of how photography works. Here are some photos I took in the Haunted Mansion, Disneyworld, last fall.

Let's start with this one:

I think it might be an object of some kind in a dark room. Magnificent work.

Here's another one:

This is one of my favorites. I think it's a zipper or maybe an excited moth flying by. It might even be one of the 200 glow sticks I had brought with me to drop from the buggy every twenty feet or so in case the ride broke down and we were forced to walk out. Who knows? The ride didn't break down, no one died, crisis averted. Magnificent work, also.

Now we come to this one:

I'm not sure but I think this was when I dropped the camera. Doesn't matter, turned out magnificent as well. I surprised even myself with it.

Ok, now here's a very cool shot:

This might be of the people in the Doom-buggy behind me, they were a rowdy couple and they wouldn't sit still at all. But, my amazingly-amazing photography skills shone through and I ended up with this masterpiece. I might sell copies of this one on Kijiji.

This one:

I think this was supposed to be a self portrait of me with some ghosts in the background, you can sorta see my hair there somewhere. Fantastic.

Last one:

I'm sure anyone who's been on the ride recognizes what this is. If you do, please tell me, I have no idea where this shot came from or that it was even on my camera 'til i got home and downloaded it. Superb framing, though. A+ to me.

So, if anyone would like to ask for some pointers or just admire my work, please do so.

Sorry I can't shed any light on the subjects but at least you can honestly say that you didn't bother any other guests with a flash on the ride

Someone forgot their meds this morning

You were going for the artsy look weren't you?

LOL.. I get the sarcasm here. Really, I do and it's funny. But I actually know a photographer who won a scholarship based on some state fair photographs done this way. When she won I questioned why I even bothered to learn to focus my camera at all.

Once again one person's art is another person's .............

Its nice to know that I"m not the only one with great pictures like this from HM. I did manage to get one of Madame Leota where you can tell there is a face, but...

Thanks for sharing these! Makes me feel a little better knowing that there are others on here who take pictures in the dark as well as I do!

Those are some of the best shots of the Tiki Room I have ever seen! Is that Zazu in the last one?

(Like the OP, I prefer to scan a thread as opposed to reading, and not get into the nitty gritty details of who said what. Who has time to read stuff? ).
