Just walking around Las Vegas the other night. Had fun with the shots.
Converted to BW...grain added..a little sharpening and that was about it.

Nice stuff Hatch.
I especially like the woman holding back the horse, on the roof.
That has so much detail it could almost be real.

Is that last photo of the water in front of the Bellagio? (sp?)

[Hatch]

Many thanks !! Glad you like the shots. The water is in front of the (I can't spell it either casino) you mentioned. ;) I found the only piece of clean glass to shoot through. I went a little dark with the image...but...I'm pleased with it.

Thanks for the comments.

Ahh cool ok, thought so.

Yeah we were their 3-4 years ago.
That was something i've always remembered about watching the water show at that hotel. seeing all of the lamps lined up like that... so symetrical... stood out in my mind.

Hatch~~~nice shots! i like the 2nd one really well. the angel almost looks real. he kinda reminds me of Sean Penn.


Lasa~~~i like what you did with the lady. very nice.

Happy New Year all!

Nice Hatch. I also like the Lasa retouch. Very few big cities can completely re-invent themselves like Las Vegas did. -- I'm still more partial to the old look of Vegas but I guess the new luxury resort hotels make it a world class destination. Do they still offer the $1.00 all you can eat breakfast buffet?

[Hatch]

Many thanks! Nope... the $1.00 buffet is now a myth/legend of Vegas. Well... I couldn't find anything under $10-20. Still? ............tons of fun!

All the best.
