A Kodak Picture Spot at Disney's Hollywood Studios.

A Kodak Photo Spot (also called Kodak Picture Spot or Kodak Photo Point[1]) is a location with a Kodak-sponsored sign indicating a recommended spot from which to take a photograph. They are found in areas popular with tourists, and are particularly common in Disney theme parks. [2]

One such sign reads, "This location recommended by top photographers to help you tell the story of your visit in pictures."[3]

In a project for the Center for Land Use Interpretation, artists Melinda Stone and Igor Vamos installed "Suggested Photo Spots" signs at various locations across the United States; one of their spots included the wastewater treatment facility for Eastman Kodak's headquarters.[4]
