The Disney theme parks and resorts are abundantly photogenic places, and certainly designed to be so. None more so than the the original Disneyland Park in Anaheim, California. Of course, that is the one that was conceived and it’s whole design and construction meticulously overseen by Walt Disney himself. So entirely invested was he, both personally and financially to create the first of it’s kind immersive experience, that it should be of no surprise that the visual storytelling throughout the park would be well attended. Which is to say, Walt wanted a good looking place, in the same way a chef wants a meal to look as good as it tastes.
Here I share with you 13 wallpapers featuring the Disneyland Resort that I composed to enhance my own computer screens from images found on the Disney Parks Blog and the Disney Parks site, each in two sizes.

The Disney Parks logo was copied from the web site. • The Disney Park Blog (DPB) logo is based on a older design that, in the pre-2012 blog design, once featured the styled type and castle icon enclosed in a rectangle with double arcs. • The rounded square icon is from the current DPB site design, with my own applied color coding. • As appropriate, the text is based on those from related DPB articles. • Photographer credit has been assigned as indicated by their sources. Of course, all images ©Disney.
Of all the images, the vintage Jungle Cruise shot is the most enhanced having been taken from an old slide. The colors were saturated more and the contrast increased. The greens were brought up and the image made warmer overall.
