I never get tired of seeing the castle dressed up in the lights. I just wish I can get there to see it once in person.

Beautiful photo disneylizzy! It confirms my thinking that some of the icicles had been dislodged by the gale winds blowing when we were there last Monday (12/13/10) I hope my photo will show that displacement ~ it was windy!!

I'm glad everyone likes seeing pics of the castle lit up. We got a ton of really good ones on this latest trip. We tried to get some good shots from unique angles and perspectives, too. Here's one sample:

Here are some more pics from November and December visits.

The Boardwalk

American Adventure

The night of 12/12 was a freeze warning so all of the fountains were turned off

Funky angle of Spaceship Earth

Since everyone always takes pics of fireworks, I thought it'd be interesting to go the opposite way and see what it looked like to take a pic in the other direction. Kind of interesting.

And some from around the studios after dark...

I am loving all the neon!

The parks are so awesome at night! Almost makes you want to go in the winter just because it gets dark sooner.

Those are all amazing pictures!!!

M-dude, I love the close-up angle of the castle with all the lights. This is making me want to go to DL to get some more unusual shots. I have a bunch, and if I get the chance to go through them all, I'll post some...but it's much more fun to go out there and take new ones! :D

Beautiful shot of the castle, M-Dude.

Horizons, I love all your Epcot shots. The one of the fountain is fantastic.

It's the "apartment" above the Prime Time Cafe. It's one of my favorite little touches.
