He's BA-A-C-K! DaddyB "Disneyland On Your Desktop Photo Update" April 2012

[DaddyB]

After a long break, I'm back with a photo update from the month of April. Ok, honestly the pictures were taken March 31st, but who's going to quibble about that?
I'm a little rusty with the old Canon, but let's discover the joy of Spring at Disneyland together and get all twitterpated with the place!

LOVE your updates Brett! Thank you so much!!! Made my day today. I have to say, I didn't know about the engineers break room at the NOS station. Very cool. And I love the Dug reference! *squirrel*

What app are you using for the neat Iphone photos? I'd like to get it. I like the variations you made using it, especially the panoramic one. I go in a couple of weeks for a "girls" weekend and now I'm even more excited then before! Thank you again, I know you spend a lot of time on the updates! (and I personally really enjoy the flower photos! So pretty!)

I really enjoyed the focus on main street this update, and especially the matterhorn pics with the older graphic of inside of the mountain. Thanks DaddyB!

Thanks so much! I REALLY LOVE COMMENTS BEING POSTED HERE!


I use several apps, and I typically use one, save the picture, open that saved picture with another app and tweak it some more in different ways.
The panoramic stitching app I use is called "autostitch". It's free, and it works great. They make a PC version of it too that I have used for years.

The other apps I use/play with are:
snapseed, big lens, filterstorm, procamera+, scratchcam, pic grunger and iPhoto. Each does their own thing, and I don't use them all for every picture.
I'm not much into instagram because it's a little too... well, I don't know. Just "a little too". Probably filterstorm, big lens, and snapseed are my favorites right now. Most are free, but I know snapseed is not. I got it for free from starbucks one week, though.

I use them on my iPad too.

A really fun photo program I play with is called "360" or "360 panoramic". You can create a virtual reality of the room you're in, looking 360 degree around you as well as up and down. It works best in an empty room though as it's quite slow and people walking around make it kinda blurry and ghosty. But still a fun app.

Ooohh! Sounds like lots of fun stuff to try out! Thank you! I'm cheap when it comes to spending on myself, so I love that most of the apps you listed are FREE!! Score =) Going to start downloading NOW! Yippee!!

And thanks again! Not only are the photos beautiful and fun to look at, but I really like your commentary too! Happy Easter to you and your family!

These photos were so pretty! I haven't seen Disneyland in the spring for a really long time.

Thank you for the amazing photo updates. I am always excited when you post a new one. Your updates always help me to have a Magical Day!

[DaddyB]

Now if I can just get back to the park with my camera sometime before, you know, the end of the year!!!

TRULY appreciate all the comments. They really do motivate me to get back there and take photos and to sit for hours to work them into an update.

Anybody using any of the desktop wallpapers from this update?

Anybody using any of the desktop wallpapers from this update?

I am! I have the second flower wallpaper on my desktop. Love it!!

Missed your updates! I live in the middle of the country now and look forward to lovely images to remind me of easier times (= Thanks for the focus on main street-it is one of my favorite places. But then again, as you mentioned, every place at Disneyland is a favorite place.

Anyway, thanks again!

Oh just saw your question. Yes! I am using the New Orleans Station image as my desktop right now! I hope to make a donation as a thanks soon too grin.
