I downloaded the ACV file and loaded it into CM under LAB mode, however, it did not get as blue as the image you posted.  Do I need to perform anything else besides loading the ACV file?  It definitely makes the sky bluer, just not as blue as the image you posted. 

I am still trying to understand the details of LAB mode.  I have done some reading including Dan Margulis' Professional Photoshop 5th Edition.  I have just started this book and will have to re-read what little I read.  This appears to be a great reference book but a slow read.  Once I digest this book, I plan on getting his second book, Photoshop LAB Color.

What points do you set in LAB mode and what do they mean?

I look forward to learning the details of CM with the starting of Week 2 of the CM 101 Class on Sunday, tomorrow. 

Thank you

David,
LAB is a different Animal...We will cover it quite a lot in the course. 

If the colors are not close; I wonder what color profile you are using. 
I use the "save for web" process in PS and leave the setting on Monitor Color. 

It might just be a difference in hardware...
