Weekly Photo Challenge: Nighttime

If there’s a more lively place at nighttime than Las Vegas, we just haven’t been there (although Shanghai’s Bund comes close)! It’s “lights on” everywhere — from the dancing Bellagio fountains to the uplighted Eiffel Tower at Paris Las Vegas to the brown turned gold Wynn facade.

Welcome to Vegas — any time day or night!

Nighttime draws people to The Strip where people watching and picture taking go hand in hand.

You might get your days and night mixed up though — if you hang out in the casinos. Keep a watch handy. You just might not be able to tell whether it’s morning, noon or night. It’s Vegas, baby.

Seems like nighttime when you’re in the depths of a casino!

Weekly Photo Challenge: Street Life

This week’s WordPress challenge — Weekly Photo Challenge: Street Life — brought me back to Las Vegas where I remembered streets filled with happy people seeking something quite different from what they experience at home. Some “streets” were really overpasses where pedestrians crossed over to the other side or paused to look below at the traffic.

And some “streets” led outside the big hotels like the Wynn so you could take pictures of the waterfall or the people who made the evening special.

Of course, street life in Vegas means dressing up for a night on the town! And why not? What happens in Vegas . . . well, you know the rest.
