The United Kingdom in the World Showcase at Epcot



Did you know that the building that houses the Tea shop is based on Anne Hathaway's home in Stratford-Upon-Avon.  Anne was the wife of William Shakespeare.

After construction of the UK Pavilion was completed, it was decided it looked too clean to be accurate so they painted soot around the chimneys.

The second story windows of the gift shop has four crests that represent four prestigious Universities in the UK.  These are Oxford, Eton, Edinburgh, and Cambridge.


This is a fairly easy shot to get is you are staying in the Epcot Resort area when Epcot opens before World Showcase.

This was a 3 bracket HDR image with the normal exposure set to aperture f/8.0, 1/320 sec shutter speed, ISO 100 and 18mm (1.5x crop).  Because there was lots of sunlight and I was walking to Epcot, this shot was done handheld.

Have fun capturing the magic of Disney.
