Plant Life at the Land of Disney

A couple weeks ago, I took a trip to Disneyland. Mostly everybody I know has been there at some point or another, but for others, I want to bring the Magic Kingdom to them until I they have a chance to go.

I used to work there about 10 years ago and new about the lengths the horticulture department go to make sure the visual plant experience is up to par with the structures and immaculate attraction design. They would go in EVERY night just to pull out the worse looking plants and replace them with fresh looking ones. Pretty amazing lengths to go through just to let every single adult and child experience and have the time of their life. The experience seemed to be the most important part which places outside of Las Vegas seem to forget these days.















Parts Two and Three are shots of Disneyland and Disney's California Adventure, with some shots of the all new Cars Land. I'll post the next one on Sunday probably. Until then, you can check out my older pictures here.

Had you not mentioned that these photos were taken in Disneyland I would have assumed you went to a botanical garden.
I really like the color saturation on these, so vibrant!

I was just wondering if I might have dialed the saturation up too much on some of them. Pictures aren't meant to be looked at as lifelike but as a painting using light, which I still forget at times. I didn't really have to add that much though. Those plants were just that colorful, and it was actually after dusk too.

Thanks for the kind words, Susie! :-)
Again, beautiful colors... Would like to see a plants/flowers and bugs mixed theme ;)

Man... you sure give me great ideas. I'm long overdue to hit up the LA county arboretum. Sounds like a good place for bug hunting
Lotsa flora in the land of Disney, eh?
Very pretty shots, btw. :)

Hey, thanks alot, man. The flora is everywhere. Sometimes its really hard to see it because the building decorations are incredible that they overpower the plant and flowers. They are more like icing on the cake.
