The Dapper Dans hitch a ride to Fantasyland on the horse drawn trolley up Main Street USA. ; I will be adding more of the parade later.

I photographed the Main Street Trolley Parade during the 12:05PM performance. ; As you can imagine, the Sun created a lot of shadowing. ; To neutralize the shadowing I used my speedlight in Balanced Fill Flash mode and adjusted the flash's power setting to control it.

Clang, clang, clang goes the trolley number.

Earlier in the day, I photographed some of the characters of Main Street for the daily paper, mind you. ;
