    i thought it would help tim customize the offerings to his adoring masses if we polled everyone attending or likely to attend mousefest 2007 to find out what kind of mousefest tours would be popular, i made the first 3 choices different from last years offerings, mainly because many of us attended all of the t-mip tours last mousefest and have expressed interest or technique queries about those subjects, esp downtown

    Night-time resort decorations!

    With the decorations in the parks getting slimmer and slimmer every year, the resorts are the place to go to see the lights.

    I'm saying other, nighttime MK. I do seem to remember that there was one last year, but I couldn't make it. It's like this.. I feel I've largely done what there is to do at Epcot at night. Not totally, if I get a proper tripod I have to do some work there at night to see how much I can improve upon my past results. But I've done little night photography at MK, mostly all centered around Tomorrowland. I find night photography at Epcot easy to plan, most of the shots are fairly obvious. You have your big, iconic buildings that are all lit up, and you just find a good angle to shoot them. But MK is more complicated, and my artistic vision is too limited to see many of the possibilities that are there.

    What Tim hasn't told you - he's going to offer seminars with special guest speakers. Topics such as:

    "The Effects of Beverley on Photo Quality & Composition while using a mainstream P&S", presented by Phil Askey.

    A panel discussion on "Smart Watermelon: Will it turn you into Ansel Adams?" along with "Ansel Adams: Photoshopping El Capitan"

    "Tactics for photography on Dinosaur"

    "Proper white painting techniques for your lenses" and "Mastery of Red Ring Painting"

    and finally:

    "Lessons in Portraiture: How to photograph a photographer in action"


    ;D

    Nice, even if I don't QUITE get them all. The "Smart Watermelon" reference went over my head.

    due to popular demand i added night mk as a voting option, to allow quicker sorting out the open option,

    just a small point of clarification, this is not a binding poll, but is being used for research to see what YOU folks want to do for MF07... so please if you have any suggestions, etc., let 'em rip!

    How about the Osborne Christmas Lights.

    I personally have never seen them, but by the description of them, it sounds like it would be a good photographic opportunity.

    Now, if the much desired Nightmare Before Christmas overlay ends up being part of the Haunted Mansion update, there should definitely be a meet for that. If it's anything like the one at Disneyland (or better), there are some good pictures to be had.

    When is the Mansion scheduled to be up?

    9/13?

    Sounds plausible. DL's takes a whole month to switch over (and do minor rehab), but if the Mansion is already getting a major rehab at the same time.....

    But if you notice that on 1/2 the HM is down for another rehab, then you'll have your answer.

    Personally I doubt it. It would need to be part of a park wide redo, a la IASW Holiday. But IASW at MK doesn't have the same exterior impact like DL's. (just forget about the snow, okay)

    i would like to limit this to staying in the parks or i don't think as many people would be inclined to attend...
    maybe we can do something out of the parks on an unofficial basis...

    please make your last minute suggestions now, the schedule is beginning to fill up...
    deadline for this thread is in a few days.

    I would like to suggest a Night Epoct meet on Saturday, that's Epoct's day perhaps around 7 - 730 and for people like me a beginners class, that would basicly stay in one spot. That way Tim can help camera confused people who need special attention:) Not that I wouldn't want to take any pictures but he could figure out easy stuff to take and help at the same time. How about it Tim? Whatcha think?

    Tim, I'll be at Mousefest from Friday - Monday. Since I live in Jacksonville I can leave a little later on Monday if need be, just dont' want to do I95 in the dark! The only other meet I'm committed to helping out is Nathan's Raglan Road. I can move between both your tables at the mega meet. If all goes well during the begining of the school year I could probably be there on Thursday if you need someone to help at a meet than.
