Hi Kim,
Wow, this does bring back some great memories. I especially enjoy the warm amber tones, fireworks with the castle showing through the smoke. Great work, loving this one.

Irene Colling level-classic August 02, 2010

This photo is as grand as Disneyland itself.

You did a fine job with exposure to bring out just enough detail for form yet leaving much of the image in shadow.

Well done Kim. #8802198

Kim Andelkovic August 02, 2010

Thank you Irene :-) It sure is a grand place #8802359

Jean-Pierre Ducondi August 03, 2010

This is as outstanding as Disney Land Kim! I've never been there but this image reminds me the very first time I went into the new Disney store in Dallas and one of the clerks came up to me and said, I've never seen your expression on any of the children that come in here, it is priceless...I was about 40 at the time...your image is putting the same expression on my face now! #8804119

Kim Andelkovic August 03, 2010

Awww Thanx Joannie.....I can only imagine lol glad you liked it :-) #8804223

Patricia White August 03, 2010

You did a wonderful job of capturing this. I also agree with Irene about the exposure. Just right. By any chance were there other colors or was it all warm tones? Isn't this such a wonderful place to visit? I would love to go back someday. #8804538

Kim Andelkovic August 03, 2010

Thank you Patricia.....this was taken pretty much as is I just brightened it a tad....so was a lucky shot considering it was hand held.....to many people around to have a tripod. Spectacular place for sure. #8804567
