Thank you all very much for those kind words. This is a shot I took last month while walking around Universal Studios. Didnt get a chance to get on the ride but hopefully next time I will be able to.

A couple more recent pictures I took at the Magic Kingdom 2 weeks ago. Rivers of America Love how they decorate the parks for the holidays. One of my favorite times of the year to go. Welcome to Tomorrowland Took a few different long exposure shots of the MSE parade while I waited for Wishes

How about going in one of those steel cages in the ocean around Australia and the great whites sharks swimming around?

How about that jump off the Stratosphere in Vegas? That is insane

Thank you very much Dave. You can always download a larger version or different size off my Flickr page if you wanted to make one your background. Right now they are all watermarked but going to start a set with them not on later tonight when I get home.

Its really been a great hobby and with my love of theme parks the two come together perfectly. I really got into by accident and have taken off ever since.

Hopefully sooner than later! Awesome shots! Thank you Ill try to post a couple a day here and there.

Thank you all and glad you enjoyed them. Ive got tons more ill be posting over time

^ I love chicken and beef but when It comes to some of the stuff you got pictures of like jellyfish heads count me out, lol

^ TPR Trip = The prefect diet

Not a problem, will do.

Hello all, So after some encouragement from BeemerBoy and Hilltopper39 I decided to start this thread dedicated to some of my Themepark photography that I have taken or will be taking in the future. Most of my photos will be in or around the Central Florida area since that is where I frequent the most but hopefully can add some from other places eventually. I am by no means a professional photographer and don't take myself too serious when it comes to photography, just a hobby I started about a year and a half ago and figured I share with others. Feel free to comment, criticize or ask questions. This will be a mix of coasters, other rides,shows, resorts, restaurants and really anything else involving those. So hope you enjoy and on with the show. One of the first chances I got to walk around the Magic Kingdom at night minus the wife and kids and took full advantage of it and got some great shots. Ariel's fountain in Fantasyland. I believe this beast doesn't need an introduction lol. This shot I took this past October on a quick weekend trip for Halloween Horror Nights. Kind of a happy accidental picture while riding Big Thunder 2 weeks ago. Decided to just snap away almost the whole ride and see how it went and tunred out pretty good. Being a quiet morning at the Magic Kingdom helped with an empty train. What the Teacups would look like after a long night of drinking lol. Ill admit im a sucker for these long exposure shots, they make nice eye candy. While waiting for the Main Street Electrical parade I decided to experiment a little with different lenses and like how this one turned out.

My first inversion coaster was Montu at Busch Gardens. Not a bad ride to break me into Ill also never forget the date because very sadly it was the same day that Princess Diana passed away

Thank you Sadly I don't get up to Orlando as often as I would like and visiting out of state even less frequently so the picture would lack variety and be mostly Orlando pictures sporadically when I do get up there. But that'd still be great....just update your own thread whenever you get the chance. I just hate to see quality stuff like this get buried in between consistent park updates. Also, is it safe to assume you're a fan of Tom Bricker? Your night work is on par with some of his incredible work. Ok then maybe ill start my own, sounds like a good idea. Seeing Tom's photos was one of the reasons I got into DSLR photography and really a huge inspiration along with some of the other well know Disney photographers out there.

Everyone was spared this time

Thank you Sadly I don't get up to Orlando as often as I would like and visiting out of state even less frequently so the picture would lack variety and be mostly Orlando pictures sporadically when I do get up there.

Wow Chuck some awesome photos on this amazing looking trip Id seriously starve on this trip since im not really the most adventurous of eaters, or find the closest Mcds

Thanks AJ. I really like the long exposed shots also. I have some more I can put up later.

Wow this water park looks awesome!

Lol yeah true.

Here are a few more pictures from my past trip. Dumbo Hyperspeed Big Thunder boneyard Main Street Blur Gaston's Wishes

Thank you

I dont think 1/4 of the locals even realized the coaster existed or even cared it was there.

Such a shame it has to suffer this fate but as a local you could see business was starting to slow downs after a few years of the newness wore off and the lines for the coaster were pretty much a ghost town. Was a great ride and was awesome having a coaster that close to home.

I was lucky enough to have a business meeting up in Orlando 2 weeks ago and had time to hit the Magic Kingdom for a few hours and catch Celebrate the Magic. Heres a couple shots I got of the new show.
