Next we went to the Haunted Mansion. We love it most when it is decorated with the Nightmare Before Christmas overlay.
Zero has a nice present of bones.
The gingerbread house looks great this year. It looks like Jack's house from the movie and Zero circles the top. At the bottom of the table, a ghost train circles.
Next up was the real reason for waiting around until after dark. On the recommendation of Tom Bricker, a fellow Disney photographer whose photos Theresa just loves, I bought a new fish eye lens.
I was planning to head back to Toontown since I thought there would be fewer people, but as I was passing the Mad Tea Party, it was a super short line, so I went to get pictures.
Look! They removed all the tea cups!
Okay, not really. It was just a really long exposure and they weren't in any one place long enough for the camera to see them.
it's a small world is glowing under a full moon.
And then I finally made it back to Toontown. Just in front of Roger Rabbit's Toontown Spin.
Here's a picture from a normal vantage point.
Then I put my tripod up on the ledge to get a better vantage point. Unfortunately this new lens has a lot of lens flare, but I don't think you can do anything about that with a lens that cover 180 degrees.
Mickey's house
The park had closed, so I slowly made my way to the front. Dumbo was still running, even 15 minutes after park closing.
Mr. Toad
A look at the castle from the Sword in the Stone.
And back towards the carrousel.
Then a few shots of the castle.
As I was taking a photo of the Astro Orbitor, a security guard came to let me know that he could only let me take a couple more photos and then we would have to leave because there was a private event that night.
A quick photo of the entrance and it was time to walk to the car.
I think I'm going to like this new lens! Another fun day at Disneyland!
