I'm a school teacher in Idaho who loves everything Disney. We don\'t get there as often as we would like and I have found that MouseWait helps me get my Disney fix!

There is a great article written by some MWers. I believe it can be found in resources - KissDclown1088.1 #77 6-3-11 11:25PMLike Reply
To some extent it depends on the kind of camera you are using but here are a few: 1. Pay attention to composition - learn the rule of thirds and don't be afraid to look at the work of other photographers for inspiration 2. Don't use a flash in dark rides - it is annoying and doesn't help make the picture better. It actually flattens out the whole scene. If you have an SLR, get the fastest lens you can afford. The smaller the number you can set the aperture to (like f2.8, f5.6, etc) the better in low light. 3. Take lots of photos! Film is cheap these days because you dont need it so shoot away and edit later. 4. Post process - evaluate your pictures and use an editor to crop, set contrast, adjust color and more. 5. Have fun. If it seems overwhelming, shoot from the hip. You will get some very interesting pictures that you would have never thought to take if you were trying to get the perfect pic. - ghosthost316.4 #540 6-3-11 11:39PMLike Reply

Heartbroken for my daughter. She went on her trip today to another amusement park and had her purse stolen. He ID, debit card, cell phone, iPod , senior pictures, yearbook, Nike shorts , her sisters shirt. She feels violated. Poor thing. More...
I'm so sorry! I've had my stuff stolen so much that I come to expect it an never leave anything unattended. Hopefully the thief finds no use for her stuff, at least her senior photos and yearbook, and returns them to the park's lost and found. - ladylikesdisney921.5 #95 5-25-11 11:59PMLike Reply
Aw, so sorry to hear this :( Some people are so cruel! A lot of those things are memories. I've had my home burglarized before & yes you feel violated. I too hope he returns the stuff he has no use for like her yearbook & pictures. - Paulina43.5 #3892 5-26-11 12:07AMLike Reply

Have you performed at DL?? My husband marched down Main street. I danced on stage and our family was in the parade. All were experiences I'll never forget!!
I have performed at DCA and DLR a few years ago with my high school band and colorguard team. Since I was captain of our colorguard I got to be in the very front of the parade :) - erINwonderlandCM254.9 #962 5-20-11 2:00PMLike Reply
