Bellagio 3 by JJPoatree on DeviantArt (original) (raw)

May 2019. Las Vegas "strip" - the epicenter of excess everything. Lavish casinos, buffets, slots and gambling, booze, smoking, entertainment, tasteless wardrobe choices... and yet, I still had a great time.

Where else could you see a Statue of Liberty and downtown Manhattan, an Eiffel Tower, a Sphinx and pyramid, a ferris wheel/bar, alcohol at CVS, San Marco Piazza and indoor canal complete with gondolas, not to mention numerous casinos/hotels with golden facades all on one street, Las Vegas Boulevard?

Taken in the foyer of the Bellagio Hotel and Casino. There is a display of a multitude of shallow glass bowls presented as flowers, hanging from the ceiling. I experimented with long exposures, moving the camera with the lens open.
