Epcot 30th Anniversary

[Scottwdw]

My experience yesterday was not very celebratory as I waited in line for Mouse Gears for a few hours on a very hot and humid day in Epcot. ; However, I did spend a lot of time in Epcot earlier in the weekend and thought this photo embodied Epcot today and EPCOT Center of yesterday.

Monorail with wide angle lense?

Yes, was taken at 16mm with the Nikon D700. ; Cropped for composition into a 16x9 ratio.

Very nice Scott...now I need to find an excuse to ride the monorail into Epcot as I haven't done that in years! ; That's a cool angle I had completely overlooked.

Clouds were awesome that day, too...nice job!

Thanks, Justin! ; The monorail windows act like a polarizing filter. ; I cleaned up a couple of window reflections in post, too. ;

Considering how hot and humid it was, I was thankful for any cloud cover last weekend. ; Whew!

I got as close to the window as I dared. ; While this is cropped some from the original, I did not get any of the monorail in the image.

Thank you, Paul, Craig and Michael!
