Peak Interests


Much has been written about the Mountains of Disney, in fact there is an excellent book by Jason Surrell that discusses the Disney Mountains and the work performed by the Imagineers. I took this photo of a concept drawing that was posted outside of the construction site for Expedition Everest-Legend of the Forbidden Mountain on a trip with my family to Animal Kingdom in May of 2005.  I appreciated the fact that Disney posted this at the construction site so that one could try to visualize what the final ride would like.  I remember at the time thinking to myself what type of queue Disney would come up with to tell the story that this type of attraction deserves.  Boy did they hit a home run with the Queue!

Little Town


Here is a photo from Disneyland Paris I took on a recent trip.  It is in the Le Pays de Contes de Fees  (The Land of Fairy Tale) attraction, also known as Storybook Land.  In this photo Belle is sitting quietly in her "Little Town" reading or maybe even singing.  I wonder how she manages to get the town square to herself? 


Welcome to Magical Prints

Hello and welcome to the Magical Prints blog.  My goal with the blog is to provide a snapshot from the Disney Parks and Resorts via my photography and perhaps provide a little background on what I see in the photo.

I am also posting some of my photos at Photrade so you can view some of my Disney related photos there as well.
