Fountains of Bellagio

This is a nighttime shot of the Fountains of Bellagio at the Bellagio Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas. Amazingly, it was only about 5:30PM when I took this...but since it's right after the switch back to Standard Time, it gets dark pretty early.

This is one of the best free attractions on the Las Vegas strip--probably only topped by the pirate show at Treasure Island. It's wonderfully choreographed and is very entertaining. I also thought the relatively slow shutter speed really brought out the motion of the water--you can see (and feel) the jets of water moving up, reaching their peak, then falling back down to the pool below.

I'm doing lots more day and night shots of Las Vegas, so look for more to be posted soon.

Another photo tomorrow...
