I was in Las Vegas for the last two days, and it was very relaxing and lots of fun. Anytime I can actually manage to forget about work is an accomplishment in itself, and to enjoy quality family time is a bonus. We saw the Phantom of the Opera at the Venetian. The show was awesome. This is the second time we saw it, and it was just as amazing as the first time. We only came for a one nighter, and I was way to tired after the show to go out on the strip and get some good night shots, so I just hit the sack, and decided I would come back later in the year to devote some time to quality vegas shooting. Those of you that were expecting me to come back with some cool shots, sorry to dissapoint.

The next time you are in Las Vegas, and you love photography, be sure to visit the Peter Lik gallery at the Forum Shops. This guy’s prints are amazing, and are a testament to the lasting quality of large format photography. I have been saying that large format is not dead, but definitely breathing it’s last breath. I have had the pleasure of shooting with this format, and I can tell you from first hand experience that the prints from this format are breath taking, and this gallery should be a “must visit” for any photographer, or anyone that appreciates photography.

I spent the last two days in Las Vegas. On the way out of town, we stopped at the Luxor, to see the King Tutankhamun exhibit. I am not sure if cameras were allowed or not, but the security guard said nothing. The exhibit cost ten bucks each, and if you are in to this kind of stuff, then it may be worth it. If you aren’t into this, then skip it, it is not that great.
This is not real gold (this is a replica of the actual tomb), and I propped my arm up against the glass, so no tripod was used in this slow shutter speed shot. My SD550 comes in handy.
