Disneyland is a place I can appreciate… when taken in slowly. I’ve been here during Christmas twice and it was not the best experience. Long long lines, overcrowding, and cold weather. Yikes. The best thing about going during the holidays is the holiday decorations, though.

In previous trips, I am nearly always in a line, waiting to get on rides that are too short for what they’re worth, that I don’t get the chance to take those quintessential Disneyland photos that I’ve always wanted.

On a previous Disneyland trips, I brought all my lenses and my best camera. What resulted was a very tired shoulder from lugging everything around all day, and a lost lens (ironically while we were trying to find Nemo in a submarine ride). So this time, I wanted to only bring one lens. But not just any lens. I wanted to try a lens that I’ve been drooling over for the longest time – Lensbaby Edge 80, a tilt shift lens that is just too much of a novelty lens for me to really consider a full purchase.

Zion + Bryce + Death Valley – Travel Photo Diary

Zion Travel Photo Diarieslocation

ZION, UTAH

My boyfriend Joseph loves to travel. Most of the time, he travels out of the country by himself. But when he travels in the States, I usually come along, hehe. Last summer, he announced our plans for the upcoming holiday to be in Zion National Park, in Utah, and ever since then, I had been counting the days till we would arrive there.

After a six hour car ride, we finally made it!
