This week represents a first for Photo of the Week, with this being that today's featured photo is the first I have shared which shows one of Walt Disney World's beautiful resort hotels. And where better to start than Disney's flagship resort at WDW; The Grand Floridian. Officially known as "Disney's Grand Floridian Resort and Spa", this awesome hotel is located on Seven Seas Lagoon, just across from the Magic Kingdom, and is themed to reflect a Victorian Seaside Resort. It opened in 1988, and offers one of the best ranges of amenities on property, with significantly more than even its fellow Deluxe Resorts.
My photo of this incredible resort was captured from the Express Monorail, on a commute between the Magic Kingdom and the Transportation & Ticket Centre. Any commute on the Walt Disney World Monorail System offers unique views of some of WDW's greatest landmarks, and this journey offers no exception, with passing through the Grand Floridian one of its highlights. I took this photograph on the stretch of the journey between the park and the resort. Whilst this loop doesn't actually stop at any of the resorts, only MK and the TTC, it does provide stunning views of them, including the one shown in the picture. I have edited this photo slightly, and have tried to do so with the theme of the resort in mind, so to hitherto make it as authentic as possible, as I always aim to do with all my photography. I think the 'tilt-shift' filter I used really enhances the photograph!
So, here it is...
