Three Pictures- Black and White Vegas

These three photos were taken on the plaza in front of the Bellagio Hotel. The Bellagio is famous for its water show-- loud music with coordinated jets of water shooting into the air. It's cheap entertainment, and draws a big crowd, some of which you see above.

If you can ignore the lights and traffic of Las Vegas Blvd, just a few feet away, you can sort of imagine you are hanging out near a pool in some fancy Italian garden on a warm summer evening. But, frankly, it's pretty hard to maintain the illusion for more than a few seconds.

Okay, I know this isn't actually black and white, but I'm thrilled with the way it turned out. These are folks strolling through the plaza with the streetlights casting some great shadows.
