While taking early morning shots today at the Contemporary, I noticed the outdoor pool table and decided to try for an artistic shot.

A black and white shot of the Contemporary. The clouds provide some needed drama to the shot.

Some various views of the Polynesian bungalows at dawn. I processed them to achieve different looks.

OK, for you owners and lovers of Boardwalk Villas, here are some shots I took of BWV.

Granted, the lobby doesn't smack you in the face when you enter as it does at the WL or AKL, but we don't stay at BWV for the lobby, do we?

I shot these as I went through BWV to hit Crescent lake for some dawn photos.

Who are these poor schmucks, waiting for Magic Express so early?

This is just a shot of the portico of the Contemporary Resort that I took on my last morning before we left. The maintenance crew has just sprayed it with water, and it caught my eye.
