disneygurlz2s Posted August 21, 2007 Posted August 21, 2007 OOOOOH... the Kings Island/Strickers pictures are next. Can't wait. Kennywood really does look nice. I think I need to put that on my short list! Shari
jynx242 Posted August 21, 2007 Posted August 21, 2007 Hanno - I can't express my gratitude for your trip report. My pictures, although funny, aren't nearly as FANTASTIC as yours. I swear I could almost smell the funnel cakes looking at yours. It is so cool that you managed to hang out with just about every person on the trip, and capture them on film without their knowing it!! I would like to add that the pictures of me in strange contortions or configurations were during random "TPR Dance Parties" that we threw every once in a while. I don't usually walk around looking like a strange bird of prey (or do I???) David
Dailey Enterprizes Posted August 21, 2007 Posted August 21, 2007 Wow you've shown the best pictures of Kennywood yet! I'm glad that you enjoyed the park.
philthephorce Posted August 22, 2007 Posted August 22, 2007 I agree with D.E. Seeing these pics makes me wish even more that I hadn't signed up for extra hours at my job, yet they make me want to go back very very soon...like, my next off day! Thanks for reintroducing me to the beauty of KW that I've come a bit ignorant to in recent years.
tigerxeyez Posted August 22, 2007 Posted August 22, 2007 Hanno - you took the most amazing pictures, some of which I'm in that I saved that I would've never been able to get without you! You're awesome!!
sfne2005 Posted August 22, 2007 Posted August 22, 2007 That sure is a scary picture of Larry and the "this is my party shirt". Almost looks like a night gown!
Hhappy Posted August 22, 2007 Author Posted August 22, 2007 It is a shame.. but all good things come to an end. Today day 11. Two parks.. Kings Island and Strickers Grove.. I'll do Strickers Grove first and the last update will therefore be Kings Island. here we go.... ehmm dude.. i forgot to take pictures from the outside (there's no fence ) now that is a good deal fun for everyone and Tornado owh jeah.. we came for coasters.. Teddy bear another funny looking attraction tsjoek tsjoek ehm.. more fun which part of the sign there was way more then just 2 coasters how to get a line on a nice day Best way to start a park visit.. group hug Looks like we made it.. in the distance.... We had a lot of fun on the bus.. maybe even a little too much (what's too ) anyway.. looks like a happy person to me
Hhappy Posted August 22, 2007 Author Posted August 22, 2007 Last update... Kings Island. The park that was the end of the Trip with Night "ERT" on Beast... and all the other famous rides. The quality of pictures is not up to the "normal standard" so far.. sorry for that... I guess i was too tired to keep on running around in the heat and trying to get the best pics of everybody.. Or was it that this park did not have that many nice/good photo ops/places?? anyway... I would like to thank (again) everybody that partcipated on this trip for making it an excellent one. Hope you liked the pics i took and shared using this medium. Maybe we will meet again someday on another trip. I'm looking forward to next years the end.. almost... nice again nice After breaking down... walking around.. "spooky" having (too) much fun?? yummie food time and that's five.. "easy" money here's four... here's three... here's two... that's one.. credit whoring the other way... hilarious sniff.. last sunset... kiddie.. but plenty of screamers here.. random theming is it love?? or pain?? celebrity... kids just wanne have fun welcome... lady and the...?? ehm.. too good to not post more water credit whoring proof 2 credit whoring proof 1 nice sign.. Other side of the park.. for the "lovers" still working.. cool down still alive (remember the no swimming?) going down tower.. tiny people back to son of beast.. the only part of Beast i could see or not?? pain? random people still no rollback fire.. water party.. ( how many people have this picture?) Son of Beast wood After Strickers Grove it was time to go up the tower.. there was a reason i took this pic.. although i cannot remember anymore.. not too bad... no beer credit for Casey don't swim here... what does "Forrest Gump" do here? After riding backwards.. i would think that this sign is most appropriate (ouch) something else then most other parks... cool down maintenance ?? or theming?? The picture everybody has i wish i would have been on that trip.. maybe in the future a "similar" one? but even he needed a little help for this one ow.. we now he's tall the kids loved it everybody trying to get the same picture... how to start a day?? headlock time ehm??
disneygurlz2s Posted August 22, 2007 Posted August 22, 2007 Samantha will be beside herself when we get home tonight and I can show her these!! They are wonderful, and she will be especially excited to see the various on-ride photos with her new pals! Awesome pictures all the way through....but, of course, I like the ones with my cute kid the best!! Glad you enjoyed your trip..thank you for sharing the pictures! Shari
gotdane Posted August 22, 2007 Posted August 22, 2007 HANNO! Your pictures were awesome! Thanks for doing this TR!
themeparkguy27 Posted August 22, 2007 Posted August 22, 2007 Ryan and Samantha pounding fists on LBGC! Love it
COASTER FREAK 11 Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 Great shots Hanno! I am glad that you got the one of Casey, Ryan and I!
PKI Jizzman Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 Wow, AMAZING pictures! You captured some shots I was trying to take at KI; but my camera kinda sucks
thecoasterkid Posted August 23, 2007 Posted August 23, 2007 Hanno, again, I love your pictures! I do my best to take very similar ones to yours, but on the trip I was just having way too much fun hanging out with everyone and riding the coasters to take the time to capture everything like that! If it wasn't for you I wouldn't have any onride photos of myself during the trip, and I'm sure many other people are in the same position! You really do have pictures of absolutely EVERYONE on the trip! It's great! Thanks for the tips on getting action shots with my D50 as well! In return I would like to strongly recommend you pick up a UV lens filter. I have ones for both my lenses and they do a great job of protecting your lens without distorting the images in any way. I seriously hope that you'll be on the East Coast trip next year so we can meet again!
shesaidboom Posted August 24, 2007 Posted August 24, 2007 Hey look, we made it into someone's trip report! I guess it's true that you really do get everyone in your photos Nice TR. You have an awesome camera and you know how to use it.
larrygator Posted August 24, 2007 Posted August 24, 2007 That sure is a scary picture of Larry and the "this is my party shirt". Almost looks like a night gown! Yes, I wear night gowns to distract people from seeing my bald spot. Why to you always wear a hat again?
sfne2005 Posted August 24, 2007 Posted August 24, 2007 ^To keep the sun out of my eyes....remember, I am bald by choice.....
DerekRx Posted August 24, 2007 Posted August 24, 2007 Beautiful photos, Hanno. It was great meeting you at Kennywood.
Splash_Mountain Posted August 24, 2007 Posted August 24, 2007 HAHA! The Coney Island map is almost the exact same style as Silverwood.
Hhappy Posted August 26, 2007 Author Posted August 26, 2007 I would like to thank everybody for there nice comments. Looking forward to future meetings and trips In the mean time.. have fun
