Where to Party in Vegas
If you want to see how I made this (and how you can too!), visit my HDR Tutorial. I hope it gives you some new tricks!
I just recently got back from Las Vegas and betwixt a panoply of activities that kept my mental faculties on edge, I did manage to go out and get some photos, of course. At least I am assured that these always turn out winners!
I stayed in THE Hotel (perhaps it's called THEhotel). I think you are supposed to capitalize that THE. Before going, I thought it was just "the" hotel at Mandalay but now I know it's much different.... It was a great place and probably the best of 7 or 8 hotels I have stayed there. Although 2 or 3 of those should barely be on the list...
This is a shot of the restaurant area of Club Mix, which sits on the top floor of THE Hotel. I was able to see so many cool places there -- I hardly knew which to process first! ...more coming in the next weeks and months!

One has to have a good imagination to get past the overwhelming tackiness of Las Vegas (my home town by the way) to find the beauty, and you've discovered it in this photo.
