    Thanks- just off to the side a bit along the rail trying to get the best angle on the sunset I could manage

    Love seeing all the F&G shots. ; I'm finally going to get back to Epcot for this, right on the final weekend. ; Haven't seen the F&G since 2006.

    And to you, too, John.

    Yep, that's about all you can say about this. ; Composition is eh but the golden hour was beautiful that night.
     
  11. The colors are amazing and while the composition may not be the best ever - as a Disney nut it makes me really happy :)

    Funny, the composition is one of the things I really like about it - other than the bit of roof at the top, I really like how the double bumps of the raised walkway jut out over the water, and how the Mexico restaurant catches reflection in the water.

    another vote here for the composition, maybe if it didn't have such golden light i might not like it as much, but i wouldn't have deleted this if it was one of my own, i'm with justin, it's got a kind of epcot symmetry about it, radical in a tubular kind of way, you know, out there, bonus points for the first person to place that movie dialogue

    One of my background projects at WDW is to duplicate some of the shots I took back in November 1982. ; Here's a "then and now" comparison of the Mexico pavilion. ; Notice any differences?

    Dennis, as much as I like the lush landscaping Disney has, sometimes I think they go too far. This reminds me of old photos of the Haunted Mansion, where you could, well, actually see it properly.

    That is cool to be able to do a "Then & Now". ; Amazing how much vegetation grew in there. ; Guess that keeps them from having to mow the grass.

    Last December it was raining up until a few minutes before Illuminations started. ; The smoke would just hang over the water after a long series of fireworks. ; I photographed this before it got too smokey.
