Walt Disney World Gallery Disc

Post by sfein » Jun Fri 12, 2015 3:07 pm

Has anyone purchased this? I was wondering about the quality and variations of pictures on it. Also if the other disc Walt Disney World Entertainment Gallery Disc had duplicates or are different enough to purchase. Sometimes you just can't get that perfect shot because of time of year or you don't own an expensive camera. It would be nice to get some nice shots. So wondering how good these were.

Thanks.

You might want to send a message to Len90. He's purchased several different photo cd packages and has had mixed results. I think he's in the midst of end-of-year exams at med school right now, but if you send him a direct message he might take a few minutes to get back to you.

Is there any way to check out the photos that are on it first before purchasing it? I know they included some stock photos on my disc when I took the Wild Africa Trek and I was not impressed with the quality of what were supposed to be professional photos :(

I'm going to be going on the Wild Africa Trek. What stock photos did they include and how many?

Can't believe I could find it so easily, but I located the photo disc! (not as organized as I once was) ~ anyhow, they weren't as terrible as I remember, but still not as great as you would expect. There were about 50 stock pictures, one of about every kind of animal on the safari, plus extras of the bigger ones, elephant, cheetah, lions, etc. and about 7 of various birds. Not sure if they include the same amount on each cd or if it varies with how many pictures they actually took on the tour.
The one thing I would recommend to people is to try to go with someone you know if you can. I have a lot of pictures of people I don't know that were on the tour with me, and seeing the pictures of the kids who were sort of bratty on the tour don't help me remember it more fondly.
It is definitely a great tour, and one I would recommend, but I was spoiled by having been on an actual safari in Africa. And I felt a bit rushed. I wish they would have a bit shorter walking tour through the beginning, and have a little more leisurely stay at the savannah house, but I know that they are trying to get a certain amount of tours through in a day.
All that being said, you are sure to see the animals up close on the tour ~ the hippo feeding was one of the highlights for me.
Hope you enjoy it! Be sure to check back in and let me know what you think of the photo cd when you get it, and how many stock photos you got. At some point I will see if I can upload some of the photos to share. There is a licensing agreement so I'll have to take a closer peek at that.

Looking forward to going. I'll definitely post how it is along with how the photos are. One month to go :)

I loved the Wild Africa Trek as well! It was a blast! I want to do it again :-)
