    New Camera Pictures I would like to share with you all

    Thanks for sharing. The Nikon D70 is a very nice camera and it has a lot of great features. You're doing the right thing by experimenting with the camera and getting used to it. Besides the Picture of the Day thread on this site, another good resource is a couple of the Flickr pools...

    Super Bowl "I'm going to Disney World!"?

    I'm pretty sure that it was Jane Eisner (Michael Eisner's wife) that came up with the idea. I think she was having dinner with friends and during the conversation, one of her friends stated that they had just finished doing something, so she said, "Well what are you going to do next?" and they...

    Can someone with a shellfish allergy eat at Japan's hibachi?

    I am allergic to shellfish, and a friend of mine was celebrating his birthday and wanted to go to this restaurant, so I decided to try it, although I was a bit nervous. When the reservation was made, we informed them that one member of the party of four was allergic to shellfish. When we got...

    What Kind of Camera Do You Use at Disney?

    Just echoing what Gorjus said: Knowledge is the most important ingredient in taking good pictures. Digital point-and-shoot cameras from the big companies (Canon, Nikon, Olympus, Sony, Fuji) have gotten to a point where they are all very similar in quality and have most of the same features...

    Epcot: World Showcase: Mexico -> Canada

    Or, if you start at Mexico and go clockwise "through the countries" of World Showcase, it's about 4/5 of a mile from Mexico to Canada.

    Photo set of Epcot 25th

    Great photos, Monorail! Looks like you put a lot of thought and effort into taking quality photographs instead of just taking a bunch of snapshots. Thanks for posting these for us to see. You should also post the link in the "official" thread so everyone who is following along with that...

    WDWmagic on a Mac

    I'm on a MacBook, and I use both Firefox (default) and Safari, and I don't have any problems accessing the site. Perhaps doing what tigsmom suggests and clearing out your history and cookies might help. Also, as Steve points out, you may want to make sure you're trying to get to the home...

    Official Photography Contest 1/26/07 - 2/1/07 Monorail Photo Contest

    Thanks for the compliments. Steamboat_Kevin--I took this shot from the fourth floor of the Contemporary. There's a door behind Concourse Sundries that leads outside. There are benches there so people can watch the fireworks.

    Photos from Cinderella Castle Suite

    Sorry I can't say how I got the photos. The official PR shots should be coming out very soon. They will be much better than these (obviously). But since these show a lot more detail than those probably will, I thought I would share with all of you.
