Park Perfect

About the Column

Finding perfect Disney pictures isn't easy. The obvious places to look, such as Flickr, are awash in pictures posted by folks returning from a Disney trip. With patience, it's possible to find stunning shots, not always 'photographically flawless', but stunning for how the shooter has captured a slice of Disney, big or small, and captured it in such a way that you're inspired to do likewise the next time you're in a Disney park. Enjoy these shots of park perfection!

Perfect BoardWalk Bench

Every Disney picture tells a Disney story, don't it, and today our perfect picture comes from Ralph, who didn't look to the skies or the parks for instamatic inspiration, but instead took a very, very close look at what we've all walked by.

People ask me - on the street, in the holding tanks - what makes a pic park perfect?

To which there is no good answer.

Obviously, a perfect pic must be technically spectacular, but in these days of digital cameras that do most of the work for you, coupled with basic post-processing, just about anybody can spew forth neat-o albums.

A perfect pic must embody not just the proficiency of the photographer but his personality, too. It must make you wonder: why did he take such and such a shot?

So why did Ralph hunker down on the BoardWalk, surrounded by so many things thirsty for his lens, and capture an extreme close-up of a bench, complete with the lettering that I had never before noticed?

He saw a shot there, and he took it. I'm sure glad he did:
