Castle Island

Description

Here's a remarkable shot of Magic Kingdom Park, with Cinderella's Castle being the center point!

I Shot this Using My Zoom Lens and You WOULDN'T BELIEVE that I was only a Few Miles away ON ANOTHER ISLAND!!!

Yes, this was shot from the Monorail Station, right across the waters of Lake Buena Vista! You can actually see the waters of the river from the bottom left, if you look closely!

For those who've never been to Magic Kingdom at Disney World, one must note the fact that you cannot directly walk to the Park itself, as it's directly on the foot of the lake, and the only way to reach the island (outside of using the Cast Member entrance) is either by Monorail, or Ferry (Boat). If you stay at the Contemporary Resort (which is directly connected to the Monorail Track!), Magic Kingdom is within foot distance.

My personal thoughts on this is that I really like how I captured and isolated the lighting on just the Park itself (especially the Castle!), and shadowing all the surronding areas in close proximitiy. It reminds me of those old fairy tales of the Castle Towns (like those seen in Europe). And the tone of the sky is just right, with the Castle being the big draw to the eye!

Overall, I tried to capture something Romantic and something that looks like it came from a dream, and I hope I attained that! :)

Plus, the title is something that I knew was cool enough to befit a Picture like this!

Wow... this is so gorgeous... *sniff*
Your camera must have one heck of an amazing zoom lens!! There is sufficient holiday hustle and bustle going on beneath, but the castle also manages to stand out as the main focus of the photo! This is one I could stare all day at, looking at all the little details! Amazing, amazing!
