Photographer's Note
You can tour the world in a single night in Las Vegas, and you can thank the big hotels for that. Paris, Venice, Rome, New York and Egypt, to name a few, are just a few blocks away from each other. The lights show are spectacular at night, but is generally dry during the day. This was taken along the Strip on a busy Saturday night.

Very nice Alford! Very nice POV. Curious as to why you went with such a long telephoto here when I'm guessing you were just able to fit the tower in. Very nice sharpness.
Regards,
Doug

Hello Alford
Well what do you know, another one of those...
Obviously the style of french architecture must be very popular around the world (ref. Tokyo Tower).
Your POV is potentially good, but I don't feel you have managed to capture the right feeling of size.
First of all the top of the tower is cut, having a little air above it would have created a better effect of reaching for the skies.
Other than this you have managed perfectly to catch the great light conditions offered.
Thank you for sharing.

Hi Alford, A superb photo with great lighting & POV, good composition, the fountain is excellent the tower is slightly elongated, however still a beautiful shot, kind regards Wilson.

A night in LV is worth for any TE member that is a lover of night shots. You did quite well in taking your tripod with you. Your framing is quite interesting and the inclusion of the waterfall in the fg is excellent.

Hi Alford,
Nice composition. Liked the idea you included the fountain and the tower. It gives more story to the picture. Well done also on the exposure. TFS!
