Fan Art Friday 1/23/10 Joe Penniston


This weeks "Fan Art Friday" artist is a photographer I found on photo sharing site Flickr.

The profile for Express Monorail(aka Joe Penniston) states:

"One thing that's become obvious to me over the last few years is that there is no shortage of Disney fans that love to share their Disney content. And the content comes in all different shapes and sizes. Everything from podcasts, to online radio stations, to books, to blogs and articles, to fan websites, message forums, video sharing, picture sharing, and the list goes on. I'm very grateful for all of these types of fellow Disney geeks and I take advantage of nearly all the different types of free content available to give me my daily Disney fix. It really makes being a Disney fan that much more enjoyable (and addicting, I must admit). For me, as one can easily tell, I enjoy sharing my Disney photography. The reason is two fold for me. First and foremost, I became fascinated with creating and sharing photography - specifically Disney photography. Then, soon after I started sharing my photography online, I started to realize that many people actually enjoy my work and seeing the world of Disney through the lens of my camera. The latter is what really sealed the deal for me and has really kind of formed my addiction / obsession / hobby. Knowing that people actually enjoy my work really makes doing this all the more worthwhile and it has kind of become my way of giving back to the Disney community of content providers out there."

Now those are words we here at DisFan Review can really get behind!

Joe works on daily themes that range from giving his viewers the background technical information of an image to shooting 2 different angles of an attraction.

I am particularly fond of Joe's ability to capture the beloved rides and sights we are so familiar with but doing so in a way that is artistic and unique.
