well, i just lost a fair bit of typing because of a browser mishap. doesn’t that suck for me? anyway, i got a around to looking through my las vegas photos. nothing really spectacular, (need to call nikon when i get a chance about my huge annoying stuck pixel (and how because of it i get a bright green 9 pixel spot) as well as my ever-disattached camera grip) but i did find a couple of shots i really like.
here’s a shot of bellagio’s fountains going off, which we went to see on thursday, the first night we were there. this is the best one i got of the actual fountains. there are a lot of pipes powering that thing.
this shot from the hotel room i was staying in at the monte carlo. you can see part of the fading sunset. it was pretty spectacular a few minutes earlier. i’m sort of sad that i didn’t get a picture of the whole thing, but i guess i’m sorrier that i can’t really visualize it anymore, even though i told myself i would try to remember it. saddest of all is my crappy account of the situation, but what good is a personal website if you aren’t free to write what you want?
last shot i’m going to post up for now is one i took the night before flying out. the window slid open enough for me to prop my camera against it and take a few shots. most of ’em came out blurry or a bit too blown out, but this one was pretty nice. vegas looks good at night – almost convinces you that it might have some actual worth.
hmm, wasn’t that fun. better than doing real work. fills up some time while i redesign. and i get to look back at this in a few years and alternatively cringe and wonder at my prose. meta meta. also, i only got carded once on the floor. of course, i didn’t really gamble or drink, so…
