Las Vegas


Album Cover In the half day remaining after my talk at the MIX conference in March '06, I spent the afternoon and evening up and down the strip along Las Vegas Blvd, taking pictures of hotels and casinos along the way. Two things are for sure: the strip is pretty long north to south and second, its amazing to see all varied architecture, and themed buildings.

I was staying at the Venetian, so theres naturally quite a few indoor pictures of that location as well. My favorite experience both in terms of both photo ops and enjoying the view was the beautiful musical fountains at Bellagio.

My Photo Gear

Camera and Lenses

Mostly Canon stuff... specifically I use the Canon Digital Rebel XTi, along with a zoom lens, the Canon 75-300mm IS USM and a wider lens, the Canon 17-85mm IS USM as well as a few filters such as a circular polarizer and a tripod.

Software

Adobe Lightroom 2 for RAW image processing.
