Sitting on the Dock of a Bay

This seagull was sitting on this lamppost just waiting for somebody to drop something on the sidewalk at Disney World when I spotted him. With a bit of a crop and trying to overcome the shadow it came out okay. LYLE

Fireworks at Magic Kingdom

I had my tripod in the Magic Kingdom so I set the D200 on shutter priority with a 2 1/2 second time and just shot away everytime a firework went up. Got lots of photos but very few that I really liked.  LYLE

Flamingo Bay

This came out far better than I expected, I was sitting in the back of a safari truck at Disneyworld and had to shoot over the heads of several people.  LYLE

Disney Oriental Gate

I shot this just as the sun was setting, it was mostly in shadow but you can see that the background is still sunlit. I didn't have my tripod with me at the time so I had to hand hold it. I also did not modify it in any way in an editor other than to tonemap it, you can see that some of the birds moved and left 'shadows' behind.  LYLE

Disney World Castle

I originally shot this for a HDR but used only the +1 EV. It generated too much noise in the blacks to tonemap it. I really like the way it came out as a single shot. I guess not everything has to be HDR.  LYLE
