A lot of my photos from Pandora look like wild stuff from ‘Annihilation’ and I’m fine with that.

The best dinosaur at Walt Disney World is Gertie, which is an ice cream stand (pro) that is seldom open (con).

To the extent that such a thing exists in a theme park, this would be the “wrong side of the tracks” in American Waterfront. If a Mount Prometheus view is wrong, I don’t want to be right.

If you’ve never taken a sunrise stroll (or in my case, mad dash for photos) around Crescent Lake, I highly recommend it. Beautiful, serene—the perfect way to start a day at Walt Disney World!

This is what a night parade passing Cinderella Castle looks like—in case it’s been so long that you’ve forgotten.

Second-best set of palm trees at Walt Disney World.

I know what you’re thinking: “Sure, Tokyo DisneySea is pretty and lavish (if you’re into that sort of thing), but is the backstory as clever as Dino-Rama?!”
WDWFigment:
Fun fact: the designers of Pandora took research trips to several alien planets and determined that most have concrete that turns green at night. Talk about meticulous attention to detail!

This is Enkoji Temple. Despite being an excellent place with diverse features, you won’t find it recommended in many Kyoto, Japan itineraries or guidebooks—you will find it in ours. Over the past few years, we’ve spent months just wandering around the cit

Fun fact: Frederic Austin’s recently-uncovered Basement Tapes included a line in the “Twelve Day’s of Christmas” about ‘one cow a-cookin.’ It was cut from the final song due to the Great Bovine Brawl of 1908. (And since this is on the internet, you’re obl

Mickey and Minnie coming down Main Street with the snow falling, Cinderella Castle in the background, and that ear worm parade music playing is one of my absolute favorite Christmas “scenes.”

Hope everyone got all of Duffy and Friends plushies, accessories, and kitchenware they dreamed of and wished for this Christmas.

Reflections can be frustrating when photographing window displays...or you can leverage them to your advantage for a double exposure-kinda look.

Looking for the perfect last minute gifts to place under your Christmas tree? Might I suggest one beacon for the show business elite, slightly haunted? It’s basically this year’s Lexus with a bow on top—nothing says “I love and/or hate you” like dropping

Sarah and I wore matching (eh, sorta) sweaters to Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party. Sweet Gizmo and Duffy, BEST FRIENDS FOREVER!

It’s the spirit of the season. You can feel it in the air. You can hear it if you listen, everywhere.

On this auspicious evening, we looped* Country Bear Christmas three times, watching four consecutive shows. Truly one for the ages, and a night that rivals our wedding in terms of personal greatness. . . *The act of exiting Country Bear Theater and rushin

It’s great to see the Three Caballeros getting more representation in the parks during the holidays. First Viva Navidad, now these festive decorations!

This was challenging to capture and I got some weird looks taking it, so even though I know already that it won’t be catnip for likes, you better believe I’m posting it.

It’s such a simple and silly thing, but I love Santa Gertie so much. I’m not normally one for convoluted backstories, but I really hope there’s a ridiculous one about her misadventures in trying to decorate Echo Lake for Christmas!

Just your average, every day view of a Mediterranean canal overlooking a volcano at dusk in Japan.
