Another Tuesday Travels post is up! This time, I’m featuring my own shots of the Las Vegas lights by night, which I (biasly) think are really stunning, considering that I was only using a 12MP Pentax Optio Digital Camera with this one! I’m not sure how I was able to capture a sharp photo as this one, maybe my hands did some magic through my shutter! He he he.

Las vegas, by night!


 

Or may be that night was just so perfect, really, for my shutterholic moment! ;-) That statue of a lion right there is the very entrance of the MGM Grand Hotel, the official boxing place of the Filipinos’ own Manny Pacquiao! This photo was taken in October of 2009 though, and I don’t think there was any Pacquiao fight that time.

 

Here’s a shot of the Eiffel Tower Vegas version:

I think I took this while in motion, if I remember it right. Indeed, amazing Pentax Optio! 

 

These shots were taken during my first Las Vegas visit. Me and my daughter stopped by there on our way to Philippines because Ma and Pa-in-law were waiting for us. We flew home to Philippines together and it was a nice experience to be with them on such homecoming. Having someone to stay at while in Las Vegas was an absolute advantage. It made our stay there easy and fun, and less of expense, since accommodation is free at my sister-in-law’s house there s there wasn’t a need for a hotel stay. I can always go back there again and again, while SIL’s haven is there, but Vegas lifestyle? Simply not mine! :)

    Lovely captures, Sis. Is vegas bigger than New York, Sis?

    Sis– Ang NY man ata pinakadaku nga city diri. Pero New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, and Las Vegas are the four largest cities here in the US with skylines nga pirmi gina-compare.
