some from the Luxor Hotel in Las Vegas

the reflections at the Mandalay Bay Hotel

one of the artifacts in and around the luxor

i liked these light in one of the bars inside, had a few beers watching these change colors

Ryan and Rebecca

this is the light that shines out of the top of the Luxor, i couldnt help myself but line it up

and for those who will ask, no i didnt gamble i would rather spend it.

shots these at about 5am on my way to the Hoover Dam

 

[Roy1961]

some shots at the Hoover Dam, i did imagine it to be bigger, but i walked across the skybridge to get some shots, the thing shook as the trucks went by.

i shot this one handed as i was holding on to the rail in case i slipped thru the 3 inch slots

note the cars in the bottom center

that's the sky bridge in the back ground

 

[Roy1961]

i shot these just of the Nevada coast line at Mandalay Bay (ok, their shark tank)

i think after this visit to the shark tank it has cured Ryan's fear of sharks, he started watching shark week after this and bought a hammerhead shark stuffed toy which he carried about everywhere with him.

the reflection of the Pyramid in the tower block, one of the 4 water falls at the pools, David waiting to get into the pool, man he loved it after the shock of the cold water that is and one of the many copter tour rides up and down the strip.
