Balloon Fiesta Bouquet

Tue, 19 May 2009 21:00:20 -0800

This is a reprisal post of an image I photographed at the Albuquerque Balloon Fiesta. It's one of my favorites and I'm posting it again because it is going to be the cover image for a classical music CD to be released in a few months. (Once I have a link for the CD I'll post it in an update on my blog.)

The colorful photograph makes a statement as a gallery wrapped 24x36 inch stretched canvas, so I'm anxious to see how it will appear on a small 5 inch CD cover.

Big Bend Once More

Tue, 10 Mar 2009 06:59:30 -0800

After recently visiting the deserts of Nevada it brought back memories of this Texas scenery - this is from my Big Bend trip last year.

NYC in Las Vegas

Sun, 8 Mar 2009 21:00:09 -0800

This 'Statue of Liberty' stands in front of an amalgamation of 'buildings' simulating the skyline of New York City (and, yes, that is a rollercoaster in the mix). The buildings are a 'united' hotel called New York, New York in Las Vegas, Nevada. The automobiles and palm trees provide scale to the unusual scene.

Vegas Liberty

Fri, 6 Mar 2009 22:00:07 -0800

Looking up at Las Vegas' reproduction of The Statue of Liberty (across the street from the previous photograph of the MGM lion.)

Back to Red Rock

Tue, 3 Mar 2009 22:00:04 -0800

For perspective, note the two 'tiny' hikers (lower left corner of photograph) on the trail leading up to the 'rock formation' - this is another view of Red Rock Canyon conservation area 20 miles west of Las Vegas.

Land of Oz

Mon, 2 Mar 2009 19:20:02 -0800

Ceiling in one area inside the MGM Grand, Las Vegas that is supposed to resemble Wizard of Oz.

Oceanus

Sat, 28 Feb 2009 07:32:28 -0800

This sculpture along the Las Vegas Strip is a reproduction of Oceanus from Trevi Fountain (popularly known in the film, Three Coins in a Fountain) in Rome.

There are a few variations on the coin throwing story, all rooted in tradition and interpretation - a popular version is throwing a coin over your shoulder into the water of the fountain will ensure a return visit to Rome - or in this case Vegas - providing you have any coins left after gambling.

Bathing Beauty

Fri, 27 Feb 2009 07:16:09 -0800

Actually, it's a duplication of Bernini's baroque Triton Fountain in Rome, but photographed in the sunlit glitz of Las Vegas' gambling strip.

A New Venice

Wed, 25 Feb 2009 19:00:25 -0800

I liked the juxtaposition of the cranes in the near distance behind the Campanile 'replica' of San Marco Piazza at The Venetian near the Las Vegas Strip.

Stratosphere View

Thu, 19 Feb 2009 13:58:52 -0800

Sorry about the 7-day hiatus - I spent the past week in Las Vegas, Nevada for the annual Wedding and Portrait Photographer's International (WPPI) conference where I met and mixed with photographers from all over the world.

I also got to do a few touristy things. This photograph was taken atop the Stratosphere tower providing a 360-degree view of the cloud shadowed mountains and, in this image, the 'old' town of Las Vegas.

Taking Off

Wed, 11 Feb 2009 07:43:11 -0800

I'm "taking off" a week - for a photography conference in Las Vegas and will return Thursday, February 19. Hope to catch up with everyone then!
