Bellagio Atrium

enlarge for best effect

Some of you probably know that this "room" is usually full of flowers, plants, and fountains. Somehow the only photo I took in there was this one...

  3. I love this image, this detail would be missed my most while they look only at the flora and fauna. Like lobsters in a cage - we simply don't look up enough.

  12. Hi Pat!!! I am noticing a consistent trend in your photography in that you are fascinated with glass, windows and different angles. You have a real gift of an eye for seeing things that most would not. As I have said time and time again...I think you should consider creating a gallery in your own home!!

    Postman - I've never been in there at night, I wonder if you can see the lights of the taller building through the glass? I'm gonna have to check it out.

    DrSoosie - You are so right! I don't think from a technical sense I'm that good, but I do have a good eye... I think I am going to have some printed up. People keep asking about buying some, so i may look into that as well. Oh yeah! WELCOME BACK....

  17. Are those bats or water sprinklers or some form of growth hanging from the roof of the thing? Don't ask why those are the first things that caught my eye - I guess I just have that awesome eye for detail - WHAT?! THOSE ARE JUST METAL THINGYS? oh...well...
