It's good to hear that you took full advantage of your vacation time. My
camera technique really could use some Disney World practice too! <g>
I shot some building exteriors around here last week and I was amazed to see
the difference between good and bad composition. I shot a certain alleyway
from two similar angles, but each composed slightly different. One used a
wider camera angle from a point fairly close, the other was more distant but
with a narrow field of view. They looked like two completely different areas!
I've learned that I can shoot terrible video as easily as good video unless I
pay close attention to every shot. It's very easy to fall into poor
composition and poor camera angles. The best way to avoid these mistakes is
through practice. I envy the fact that you had a fun place to experiment!
