Epcot - Illuminations

11.3 seconds from the finale of Illuminations: Reflections of Earth.

Renting a Tokina 16-28mm f/2.8 FX (full frame) lens this week. It is very heavy so am not sure the f/2.8 is worth it over Nikon's 16-35mm f/4 which is much lighter. With today's cameras, not sure I need the extra stops.

Taken at a similar time in the show as Scott's, but without the distortion.

Here's a different view. After enjoying an Eat to the Beat concert and an evening drinking wine with friends in France, I threw on the 70-200 and decided to shoot IllumiNations hand-held. This is close to the end of the show, with lots of shells all over the place.

I love those shells that arch out over the lagoon.

And here's my similar-looking shot from the Pixelmania "shoot from wherever you want" Illuminations meet.
