    Shot #4: You could've gone to the corner of Tropicana and Las Vegas Blvd opposite the Statue of Liberty as it makes for a really spectacular scene after dark.

    Yeah but no tripod. Not happy with my nighttime shots at all. Have loads more to go up. Had to get the wedding shots up first before I got the email deluge requesting them. Have a fair few more of Vegas and a pile from the Canyon to go up still. Sorry again I missed you. Might be back in Jan for work, if I am I'll make sure we get in contact.

    Grand Canyon - big hole in the ground, river flowing through. *yawn* Been there, done that.

    Ok, ok ... love the photo of it. No 2 does it for me.

    The canyon shots are amazing I want to go now. What time of the day were they taken at. I love the first one, you never imagine there being a fog at the canyon. Also love no.3 where is it

    I love the first one, the portrait aspect really shows off the sky, makes the massiveness of the canyon seem small by comparison. Not for agorapohobes though. Contrails are great and nasty all at once.

    Night shots without a tripod, I didn't have one, how do you think I managed :)

    It works wounders if you kinda wedge the camera against the mesh covering over the road walkways, allows you to keep things stable ;)

    Curious where was the third photo taken?

    Its the side of the Planet Hollywood Casino opposite the Bellagio in Vegas. I just loved the look of it. Should have seen the strange glances I was getting taking a photo of the side of a building from the yanks.

    For a second there I though you were trying to pass off the Bullring in Birmingham as being in Vegas
