If there’s anything I’ve learnt about photography during theme park parades on at least two of my previous holidays, concentrating on the audience action can sometimes be more rewarding than concentrating on the parade itself. The above shot was taken during the Mickey’s Waterworks Parade on my visit to Hong Kong Disneyland recently. We were in the “wet-zone” of the parade itself. While CY and me hid under an umbrella to prevent getting splashed, I managed to sneak in a shot of the people seated opposite me having an equally splashing good time 😛

This was taken in Osaka’s Universal Studios right before I took this other shot. Sometimes, pictures of parade spectators can be as interesting (if not more) as those of the participants. Selective background desaturation done here to bring out the main subjects of the shot.

Update – CY has suggested that this shot be called “Freeze” instead — because the action has been frozen, as well as the fact that ice-cream is being enjoyed. What do you think of this alternate title?
