Disneyland Photos from December 17, 2011

[CoasterMatt]

Here's a sample - I'll put the whole set up some time today (I hope- there's about 370 pics to go through, and I've got family visiting today).

Excellent. I will be waiting patiently for the rest to get posted!

Thanks.

Still have a lot to go through - Wolfy, I don't think I got anything usable of the Monorail, but I'm going to make an extra effort on New Year's Eve.

I think something went horribly wrong in this photo, though.

Ok, I might have gotten one good monorail shot-

Did you have to photoshop any of these, or did the color come out that good in-camera? Amazing!

[RStar]

Very nice!

But where's the wide angle that includes the space station?

;)

[CoasterMatt]

I do very few adjustments in Adobe Lightroom - most of that is correcting for aberrations of the lenses I use - I did boost the vibrance just a very slight bit on the castle pics. I do have the camera set up nearly to where I want it, though.

Gorgeous photos!

[alphabassettgrrl]

OMG, Matt, you have the best eye! You get the most amazing pictures.

[RStar]

Wow, that goat is looking a bit sad. I bet they didn't expect anyone to take such good pictures of it. Time for a goat trick rehab!

[CoasterMatt]

Thanks for all the kind comments. I have to work the real job this week, so I won't have as much time to work on more photos, but I will have some up by the weekend.

The ghost of Michael Jackson?

[CoasterMatt]

What's really funny, is I posted that New Orleans Square pic on a nonDisney fan site, and somebody asked if it was MJ!

I put up 3 more pics tonight-

Funny how when you look at the photos, you see things you don't notice while you're there. Like the camouflage nets on the trees, so they can't be seen from the air.

[innerSpaceman]

Beautiful shots, Matt.


D'uh.



Ok, really, why are there camouflage nets on the Hub Trees?

[Ghoulish Delight]

They're lights.

[Gn2Dlnd]

They spent a lot of money on those trees, what with them being genetically engineered with sparkle lights and all, and they don't want other parks to steal the technology. At night they double as invisibility cloaks so as not to block the views of the fireworks.

[RStar]

They're lights.

Only at night. Durring the day they double as camouflage nets. At least that's what they look like. Thay are starting to show more now that the leaves are turning yellow and brown under the green nets.

[Ghoulish Delight]

I don't think they "double as" camouflage nets. They're camouflaged to make them lest noticeable during the day (the nets, I don't think they're trying to hide the trees from aliens).

[lashbear]

I think they camouflage the trees really well ! Just look at how sparse the park looks from above:

[Gn2Dlnd]

What kind of trees are those, anyhow? Facepalms?

[RStar]

I don't think they "double as" camouflage nets. They're camouflaged to make them lest noticeable during the day (the nets, I don't think they're trying to hide the trees from aliens).

Sorry, I think you're missing my point. I'm jokeing about how bad they look in the photo, while I never noticed them while actually there.

Here's a sample - I'll put the whole set up some time today (I hope- there's about 370 pics to go through, and I've got family visiting today).



Did you ever get a chance to share the rest of your photos?
