We had a wonderful long weekend in Walt Disney World last June. If you want to find an example of customer service done absolutely perfectly, I reckon you would have a hard time finding a better place than here. I was amazed multiple times each day at how far out of their way all the staff went to make the vacation experience absolutely perfect.
Although we didn’t stay in the Grand Floridian, I spent an hour or so there taking pictures one morning. I love the classical, Southern elegance of the architecture and the opulence of the interior.

Thanks, all.
Joseph, this was all done in Lightroom (now that I go back to look at the picture) using one of my favourite develop controls – HSL. I desaturated all the colours other than red and orange and then boosted the red saturation to highlight the roof. This took about 10 seconds and didn’t involve any masking at all.
I use HSL frequently. One of my favourite tricks to create a deeper blue sky is just to reduce the luminance of the blue channel in HSL. Normally this does the trick without overly affecting the rest of the image.
