Walt Disney in Colorado

It's easy at times to forget that Walt Disney was a real living human being and not just the name of a corporation. Well, here is Walt in Colorado in glorious black and white. 

Well, not originally. It's not too often I post a photo I've taken that by necessity had to be turned into black and white for a better look. But here is Walt Disney's pic on the guest wall of fame at the iconic Colorado resort, The Broadmoor, taken during his visit in the 1960s. Wouldn't you know those in charge placed it exactly where lighting was the worst? The levels of glare and flash spots (it was too dark without flash) made it impossible to get a great shot.
