Standing close to the Luxor Hotel/Casino, Las Vegas, Nevada. It's bigger than it looks here, trust me...It's got 30 floors! The Casino and Entertainment are housed inside (it's open inside to the top, like a big pointy dome) -The hotel rooms are up against the outer wall all the way up to the top. And the elevators (inclinators) have to travel at a slant to reach each landing. Very interesting construction.

Close my eyes and count to ten.
Yes, the outside is glass. There are windows looking out from the rooms but you can't see them as they are tinted I believe.

Thanks for the compliments! Shortly after this was taken I went inside and had a shot of tequila to take the edge off (my feet were hurting) :-)
One shot of premium tequila cost me $8.75! Quite a markup :-)

Dance is the hidden language of the soul.
Interesting. Kind of funny to know that the REAL Luxor in Egypt has no Pyramids :D
O well, great image. Great composition for desktops. High marks from me.

Very good capture. I've been there; it really is beautiful. Also, nice natural frame with the palms. Thanks :D

I had this presented to me in random voting and just had to say hi. We have stayed here twice and one of my best photos ever was taken of three palms while lounging at the pool. Good work. Good material.

Yesterday's history. Tomorrow's a mystery. Today's a gift. That's why it's called the present.
