I've been building my library lately and have some more to show off.

I love the big cats, and the cheetah exhibit at Busch Gardens can give some great photo ops.



I recently got a mount adapter for a bunch of old Pentax K lenses I came into possession of, and I am loving the 50mm for macro and detail-oriented shots. This photo has very little post-processing, what you see is 99% what I saw straight out of the camera, not even much saturation or vibrance adjustments, mostly just some noise leveling.



Some more fireworks magic. I love shooting fireworks.



And finally, the shot that is my favorite that I've taken over the last few months (and the one I stayed up the latest for, it was 1:15am when I shot this), a night in the Magic Kingdom that was probably the most fun I've had shooting at night.

Is that from the new Fantasy Land at Disney? They were building it when we were there like a year and a half ago.

Nope, first one is from Animal Kingdom, the other is from Wizarding World of Harry Potter at Universal Islands of Adventure. I do have a few from New Fantasyland in my Flickr photostream, though.

Wow those photos are amazing. Just curious, why did you wait to snap the photo at 1:15?

Thanks. Mainly because the park closed at midnight that day, so I was waiting until most everyone had left the park to get shots without any people in them. Plus, the station also acts as the stroller rental/return location for the park, so I was also waiting for the strollers folks to finish putting stuff away. Getting stroller and people-free shots are basically the ultimate goal for Disney photos, especially at night. I can't count how many shots I've taken where I didn't realize at the time that there was a stroller off to the side of the frame because I was so focused on the subject only to open the image when I get home and have a tacky, ugly stroller sitting in an otherwise perfectly uncluttered frame drawing your eye away from the main subject. :pissed: :lol:

Looks like Universal.

Yep. Love taking pics over there, mostly because it has been largely ignored by the Disney photography community, so I have a chance to get the "best" shots first.

Looking back through my pictures I took on my SoCal trip is really making me miss the beautiful views out there. Add in the amazing image of Horseshoe Bend that showed up on my Flickr front page, and I'm restraining myself from buying another plane ticket west. :lol:

Here are the first few I've posted.

No, I'm not ScriptOhio, I just felt like sharing a bit of my work again.

A shot from the Cali trip in May, sunset from the La Jolla rocks.

And a few big cats to finish it off. I love photographing animals, especially the big cats.





EDIT: No set of animal shots is complete without a panda pic, so here's the San Diego Zoo's panda cub.
