A Sampling of Disney’s Aulani

Posted on
Aloha! Venturing out of Waikiki to Olina where Disney’s Aulani, a very large ocean-front resort sits, took about 45 minutes by car. The only tricky part is H1 East becomes 93 and then you need to make sure you know which exit to take. Luckily, we guessed better than what the GPS said. My advice, … Continue reading "A Sampling of Disney’s Aulani"

Catch You Later

Posted on
My inner monologue has been over-flowing with stereotypical Jewish what ifs, guilt, second guesses, and the desire for a nice Kosher deli at Disneyland, all in Jackie Mason’s voice. Why? What’s all the fuss? As a photo blogger I need a large number of pictures to use in my weekly writing, and to get those … Continue reading "Catch You Later"

Neon Night Photography

Posted on
Over the years, one of the most common questions asked of Scott, Barrie (you remember her), and me, is about night photography. Our reply always includes the need for a tripod or steady flat surface so that your camera is still. Why does it need to remain motionless? Because is in order for the digital … Continue reading "Neon Night Photography"

Last Set of Photo Bombs from Readers

I invited readers to send in their own photos containing surprise guests. If you missed them, you can view them through these magical links.

Photo Sequence: Serveur Amusant

Posted on
One of the things you can try the next time you set out to take photographs is to tell a story. An easy way to do that is to shoot sequential shots of some physical change or act. It can be anything like a bike ride or a baby trying a new food. If you’re … Continue reading "Photo Sequence: Serveur Amusant"

Circling Spaceship Earth

Posted on
In keeping with our Disney Pic of the Week theme, Spaceship Earth, I’m continuing the subject with tips on photographing the sphere from a moving monorail. First, board the monorail heading to Epcot at the Ticket and Transportation Center. If you board the monorail to Magic Kingdom, well…that’s the wrong line, Charlie. Second, sit facing … Continue reading "Circling Spaceship Earth"

Signs that You’re in a Disney Park

Posted on
Everything is matchy-matchy, themed, and ensembleized (new word) at Disneyland Resort and Walt Disney World. It’s like each land is wearing Garanimals (way before my time). But that’s what we love, that extreme attention to detail that assists in transporting us to another place where lunch isn’t timed and the only dress code is wear … Continue reading "Signs that You’re in a Disney Park"

Phineas and Ferb Fan

Posted on
New characters emerge from Disney and I try to keep up by at least knowing who they are and where they come from. I was clueless about Phineas and Ferb. Far as I could figure out, they met visitors at Disney’s Hollywood Studios on the set of a radio station and a hat-wearing platypus peered … Continue reading "Phineas and Ferb Fan"
