I should have gone to VT, I’ve determined that photographing eclipses is easy.

Im not sure… my SIL lives in the path of totality in Vermont, like 3:30 of totality. I have a Fuji XH2s with a 200mm plus lens 1.4 TC. Lee Solar Filter. Unsure how I’ll compose … do I stitch a sequence of the event? I have zero idea regarding exposure times. I don’t do Astro / solar work...

Prime all the way. 35 equivalent. Smaller , optically superior. Forces you to make better work not being able to rely on a wide zoom range.

Almost there!

now starts the process of designing and printing a book from this years trip!

Personally have preferred video lately but its a whole different can of worms for me. I have a seperate video rig (Fuji Xh2s) and its built into a nice lil mini cine rig with a cage / top handle / and monitor. That combined with vintage optics and shooting RAW really create some magic when...

The descent back into the real world kind of stinks. I fondly remember being on the Magical Express heading back to MCO and the troop would sing the sad version of M-I-C-K-E-Y M-O-U-S-E. The past week has been filled of listening to the audio loops from Epcot in the background as I work. I...

A few more words... The last day: and then the sadness comes in. We originally had planned an all epcot day but we didn't get a 7AM VQ for cosmic so decided to once again, park at DHS... head in and do Rise / TSM etc and then walk back over to Epcot. Today was a weird one and I knew going...

I'll absolutely look into this and contact my PCP for our next trip!

Shooting this show blind was super hard. I hadn't seen Luminous before, nor did I do any kind of research before hand. I had the camera set up on a tripod, pre focused, and trigger in hand so I could watch the show with my wife and made 2 second exposures every 2 seconds. I've worked through...

My wife found out about it on TikTok, you just ask the Captain or a CM at the gate. Simple as that!

Did you know that you can pilot something really cool at Disney? No, it's not a Millennium Falcon or the Monorail (remember those days?!) ... there's a certain steam ship that allows for a single day captains license.

Day Two: Magic Kingdom A real bitter sweet day today. We always get emotional walking into MK, something about Main Street and how many times we went in our early dating days, to being engaged, married without kids, and now with kids and them not being there with us. We constantly reminded...

A little behind the scenes shot here. The final image has about 4 images stacked together for different exposure times. Having to wait for a few cycles of the Monorail rolling through while the light died had me sweating a small bit.

I am obsessed with Epcot and must admit, I do really enjoy the front entrance but I miss the old Epcot. It isn't good vs bad, or right vs. wrong, it is just different. That is completely OK, I will come to love it as I did the old ways. This trip was actually supposed to be a solo trip for me...
