How did you manage that? I got up super early, waited in line for an hour, ran down the tiny magical streets to the front of the crowd, dove to the court yard at Sleeping Beauty's castle... and I still ended up having on person in my shot. How did you get this so people free?
Also, it's amazing.

Very nice. That f/22 and long exposure sure helped with getting the people free shot. I have a picture in my archives somewhere with a different perspective of this place. I have never shared it but there is just something I like about it. Thanks for sharing your version it's very well done.

Available light onlyEquipment
Sony NEX 5R, with 16-50mm kit lens. No tripod, no flash. I put the camera on top of a metal garbage can to get the reflection. I waited until the park is almost closed to get the scene as tourist free as possible. Setting was ISO 100, 16mm at f/22, 5 second. Camera was put on timer release.Inspiration
The movie cars off course :)Editing

Pay attention to your surrounding. Anything can be used to create more interesting effect of the scene garbage can included :) Patience is also a key.
