Growing up, I was surrounded by cameras. You see, my dad was and still is a camera junkie. I spent my days flipping through my dad’s camera magazines and looking at images taken from various lenses. Every night after dinner, we took walks in the neighborhood taking photos of flowers, animals, and each other. My mom would then take the negatives, get them developed, and we would examine each photo and have a critique session. These are one of my favorite memories of my dad and I know that he is the one who gave me the passion for photography.
One thing my dad was determined to capture was the Main Street Electrical Parade. I remember my dad holding the “best” photo spot and waiting patiently for hours before the parade. He would then make sure the exposure was correct (this was in the film days) and the lenses were ready. And of course, his photos always came out perfect!
Well, I’m not as great or committed as my dad (in terms of photographing non-living things), but here are my shots from Disneyland’s Electrical Parade.
The little lady-bug things are my favorite! I love watching them spin around and around! =)
Thanks for checking in!
