Of all the parks at Walt Disney World, Epcot may be the one that most lends itself to fantastic photo opportunities. With its World Showcase and amazing Spaceship Earth, it's hard to narrow the photo spots down to ten, but we're going to try anyway.
Spaceship Earth

Easily one of the most recognizable structures at Disney World, you can't put together a photo list without including Spaceship Earth. From all angles, it's a work of art and, as you enter the park, you can't expect those entering not to stop and take photos of this masterpiece.

One of the most stunning views of Spaceship Earth comes from Japan. Well, the Japan Pavilion in World Showcase that is.

Stand here and you get the feeling you might have left Walt Disney World altogether. Well, if it weren't for the heat and the tourists. Seriously, this little taste of charming Britain makes for a fantastic photo spot.
Walking through Morocco

I've always just like the feel of World Showcase's Morocco pavilion. It also provides some great scenery for snapshots - be they artistic or to be used for backdrops.
Italy - From Norway

There are tons of fantastic photo spots around World Showcase Lagoon, but this is my favorite. Taken while waiting for Illuminations to begin. This is also, in my opinion, one of the best spots for watching the show. And I've tried just about all of them.
Germany at Night

With the orange light from the windows and twinkling light posts, Germany has a certain charm. Especially at Christmas.
The monorail as it passes Spaceship Earth

Walt Disney World's monorail only passes through The Magic Kingdom and Epcot and Epcot is the only park that it truly enters. Catch it as it's making it's way past Spaceship Earth to combine two iconic images of Walt Disney World.

These glass pyramids stand just before Canada as you leave Future World and enter World Showcase. Unique and gorgeous, they make for an interesting subject for photography.
Hidden Canada

It might be tempting to waltz through Epcot's Canada with nary a lingering glance past its impressive architecture. However, when you do, you're missing some of the best photography spots in Epcot. With its rolling guardians and hidden pathways, there's plenty of opportunity for photo ops.
Great blog... I surfed over from the DISboards and I'll be taking notes on your photo spots!! Thanks for sharing!!!
