DISNEY FUN

It just dawned on me recently that I forgot to share some of our personal family photos here on my photography blog of our recent trip to Disney. I shared the images on my AGD design blog but forgot to do it here. Therefore, here are just some simple "sneaks" at our time within the most magical place on earth...

I LOVE COLOR! There was color everywhere. It truly makes my heart skip a thousand beats when I see life that is full of color...

I grabbed this shot of the rustic water tower for house of blues because it made me miss the beat up, old, run down, urban settings I like to shoot at back home in Indiana. Since moving to Naples, we just don't see "old" here like we did in Indy. I miss those urban sessions in a bad way. My camera lens and my soul is craving some artful graffiti and some dilapidated old buildings. :)

This shot of the fireworks below was taken with my iphone camera. Not the best quality but you get the point...

And finally...I slowed my shutter speed way down on my camera to capture this shot of the Disney electric parade. Such fun to get 'funky' with your camera. LOL!

Hope all of you are having a great week. Until next time... ~Angie

"It is an interesting biological fact that all of us have in our veins the exact same percentage of salt in our blood that exists in the ocean, and therefore, we have salt in our blood, in our sweat, in our tears. We are tied to the ocean. And when we go back to the sea---whether it is to sail or to watch it---we are going back from whence we came." ~John F. Kennedy

THE BEACH

“The Sea, once it casts its spell, holds one in its net of wonder forever.” Jacques Cousteau

Just here relishing in the fact that my toes will be sugared with all of the above in less than 48 hours as well as excited that we will once again spend Christmas by the sea this year.

Much love, Angie
