Theme park photos

[MrSophisticated]

Hey all!

As I said in my introduction topic, I regularly visit theme parks, taking my camera along. You could say I'm a bit of a fanatic (which I am), and a fan of one specific Dutch theme park: Efteling!
For those who don't know a little bit about Efteling:

Spoiler: About Efteling

Efteling is a fantasy-themed amusement park in Kaatsheuvel in the Netherlands. The attractions are based on elements from ancient myths, legends, fairy tales, fables and folklore. The park was opened in 1952. It has since evolved from a nature park with a playground and a fairy tale forest into a full-sized theme park. It now caters to both children and adults with its cultural, romantic, and nostalgic themes, in addition to its wide array of amusement rides. It is the largest theme park in the Netherlands and one of the oldest theme parks in the world. It is twice as large as the original Disneyland park in California and predates it by three years. Annually, the park has more than 4 million visitors. Over the years, it has received over 100 million visitors.

Since I visit it there quite often, I try to find new and interesting photos to take. I will now post a couple of photos I took in the past years of going there! The last ones are also using some editing afterwards (changing some lighting and stuff).

Well, that was my short list of photos I made over the past 2 years. There are (obviosuly) a lot more, but these were worth posting in my opinion! If you have any feedback, tips or hints maybe, I would love to hear them!
