Disney Years Seen Through a Photographer's Lens : 3 of 5

After enjoying the first book of this series, I decided to buy the second and third books right away! I just finished studying (you can't say reading, since these truly are picture books) the third book (I didn't realize it wasn't the second one), and even though it wasn't as good as the first one, it was still incredible - you just can't find these photos anywhere else! There are only a few construction pictures here, since most of this book was photographed after Disneyland's opening (though even now and then they will throw in an older construction photo - I don't know why these books aren't arranged chronologically!). There are some great pictures of Walt at the park, including some neat ones of the opening day of the Grand Canyon diorama on the Disneyland Railroad (I wish they would do cool opening ceremonies like that now). My favorite photos in this volume are the ones taken from the top of the Matterhorn while it was under construction (great Fantasyland views), as well as some awesome pictures of Skull Rock - I wish I could explore those creepy caves right now.
