Abstract Motion at Walt Disney World’s Epcot
After reading Scott Thomas’ latest assignment over at Views Infinitum I began to reflect on my motion shots. This part of Scott’s post hit home and helped me recall a time when I was in a creative rut…
motion photographs are made intentionally by the photographer
A while back, I felt very uninspired photographically. I guess, you could say, I was in a creative rut. I was at my one of my favorite places to shoot, but could not find anything I wanted to photograph. I was so frustrated with myself creativity that I was about to put my… Continue reading

Wow, I’ve been away from the blog for some time now. I am working on a new project and have not had much time to devote to photography.
By the way, anyone have a D300 that you are no longer using? I missed an awesome deal on eBay last week and I’m still kicking myself.

Spaceship Tron: Enter and Welcome to the Grid
I was walking around Epcot’s Spaceship Earth and my attention was drawn to the stainless steel panels at the base near the queue entrance.

19th Annual Epcot International Flower & Garden Festival – The Hand of a Sorcerer’s Apprentice
I look forward to Epcot’s International Flower and Garden Festival each year. The park explodes with color and character based topiaries. You can find these topiaries scattered around the World year round, but the best time to view them all in one place is at the annual festival.
When I heard this years entrance theme was Fantasia I was thrilled. I love Fantasia, including the 2000 update
and Fantasia 2000 soundtracks were the first two CDs I loaded onto my first iPod! To top it off Sorcerer Mickey is my favorite Disney Character!
Stacked Reflection II – Disney Cruise Line
I was looking through some cruise pictures and this one caught my attention. I processed this at the same time as the previous Stacked Reflection shot, but I was not really happy with it. After having a fun time with the Dream shots, I’ve Got A Dream and I’ve Got Another Dream , at Castaway Cay that had some cool lens flare and sun burst I am liking this one again.
