That turned out great! I'm so jealous it looks like all the light were working when you took your pic. I had huge sections of lights that were out when I was there.Jeff I would love to know more about the Sorcerer's hat picture also. I can't figure out how you did it? I know it involves a long shutter speed and zooming but that's my only information. Do you mind sharing?
Here's one from DL. kag1984 posted this a long time ago and I finally got the chance to copy it. Thanks Keith!

Love, love, love this shot!
I find it a lot tougher to get these shots with my digital camera. My SLR makes "action" shots a lot easier but can be such a pain to tote around the parks with family in tow. This was one of those multiple shots with the digital that actually caught some of the explosion.
Since you have an slr, I'm sure you know about photography so forgive me if I'm telling you something you already know. It is just what you said about your point and shoot (I assume) digital camera sounds like what I hear from so many guests; things like just hold the button down for a long time and it will eventually take a photo. When I show them that all you have to do is push the shutter button half way down till the camera beeps, meaning it is in focus, and then finish pushing the shutter down the rest of the way, it only takes a second to take a photo and you can time it so you don't miss the hugs from the princesses or car explosions or things like that.
Some lessons I learned on our 12/9 -12/16 trip this year with my new camera which has 10x zoom.
1. You can't always get a good shot with the zoom greater than about 6x unless you have a tripod or some surface on which to steady the camera.
The worst case was trying to zoom in on the animals on the Safari ride in the bouncing safari truck.
2. The 'Redeye' setting on the flash can cause you to miss some shots - by the time the redeye flash goes off and then the real flash, you may have missed the shot you wanted. I turned the redeye setting off.
Can always correct it later.
Good luck.

This works with my first shot, but if I try to take two in a row there is still a long delay with the second one. If I wait a few seconds between shots, then holding it down halfway until the beep works again. Drives me crazy!:hammer:
I feel your pain. I hear it from parents all the time. "I must need new batteries." "This camera sucks." With most point and shoot cameras there is simply a 5 second delay between photos if you want to use a flash. No getting around it. If you skip the flash and set it on burst or multiple exposure, there is a faster response...depends on the camera. These are all the things I'm considering before buying a point and shoot. Because like you, I don't want to lug a digital slr around the park for 8 hours.
Yes, that is usually what comes out of my mouth! Will you let us know what kind of point and shoot you decide on if you get one? Thanks!
