<h2>Delta over Sleeping Beauty&#8217;s Castle</h2>
<p>While visiting Walt Disney World last week, I was fortunate to be in the Magic Kingdom at the time that the Blue Angels flew over the iconic Sleeping Beauty&#8217;s Castle.</p>
<p>This wasn&#8217;t something that I was expecting when I arrived in Orlando at the beginning of the week, but due to posting some photos on my personal facebook page, a friend of mine shared the news with me and I made arrangements with the family to be in the park the morning of the fly-over. </p>
<p>The Blues made two fly-overs on this day.  This was the first.  They came into the park at approximately 9:40am and first flew over the park entrance, down Main Street, and over the Castle.  On the second pass, they came back the opposite way, that time, again in their delta formation, but broke off right before heading over the Castle for the second time.</p>
<p>This was quite an experience, as I&#8217;ve grown up as a fan of the Blue Angels, and a fan of Disney World.  Capturing the two in the shot was quite memorable.</p>

<h2>On Top of Old Smoky</h2>
<p>This morning my photog buddy, Jerry Denham, and I got up early, headed up to the top of the Smoky Mountains to catch the sunrise.</p>
<p>While this may sound like a simple task, it really wasn&#8217;t.  We discussed last night how the weather was supposed to move out of the area over the evening, but when we met up this morning, the weather had other plans.  But we decided to try our luck, and see what happened.  Well, all the way to the top of the mountains, there was nothing but drizzle and darkness.</p>
<p>Just as we got to our parking spot we realized that luck was on our side.  We still had some high clouds to deal with, but for the most part, it was not raining where we were.  We ended up just above the clouds and that created a very nice sky to work with.</p>
<p>This particular shot was taken toward the end of our stay, just as the sun was becoming too bright.</p>
