A Day at Disney

One of my favorite places to visit in Orlando is Disney World. I love to wander around the parks and of course my camera is usually with me.

Recently we brought some friends to Animal Kingdom to enjoy the day. We started out on the safari... I love the animals and on this day the elephants were out for photo ops. There is something about elephants that draw me to photograph them maybe it goes back to my elephant ride in the jungles of Thailand years ago or my many visits to the area and seeing the elephants work. I am fasinated by them

I really like the black and white image I included in this series. It was taken on the safari ride... it is in the area where you can see lions. I like the starkness of the rock... I don't know the photo just talks to me.

The other image reminds me of the exotic locations that I would love to visit and photograph. It is one of my favorite views and I find myself drawn to this site to re photograph it each time I visit the park...it just says so much about the remoteness... primitive... but at the same time artist idea of maybe Nepal or somewhere in that region. I always yearn to visit that area of the world when I see this image.

I would travel the world to photograph people at work and play or the beauty of the country and its people. I know I have said this before in my website but for me photography is more then a hobby it really is a passion...

Race Around the World

Jenn has been running for years and one of her favorite races is Minnie's Race Around the World which takes place in May. Getting up early to drive over to the start line... waiting for the beginning of the race... and then taking a bus back over to the finish line at EPCOT to see Jenn cross it is all part of enjoying the race day.

I discovered early when Jenn started running cross country in high school that I would be bored if I didn't have something to do between the start of the race and the finish... I decided to bring my camera to the races... many many races later I am still bringing my camera to Jenn's races.

This is one of my favorite photos from this race. Jenn is holding her medal and you can see the top of Spaceship Earth in the background!
