Photographer's Note
This is Fremont Street in Las Vegas which has been transformed to a one-of-a-kind entertainment using Viva Vision, the biggest big screen on the world. More than 12 million lights in the Viva Vision canopy and 550,000 watts of concert quality sound pumped to speakers throughout the venue produce an incredible array of eye-popping imagery and heart pounding music. The giant LED screen towers 90-feet above a pedestrian mall lined with unique retail shopping kiosks and two permanent performance stages. Ten legendary casinos line Fremont Street Experience with more than 60 restaurants and thousands of loose slots. Free concerts, special events, and roaming street performers entertain the nearly 17 million visitors who come to experience the vintage Vegas attraction each year.
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you all !!!

Hello Renier,
A strange image, unlike any I have seen on this site. It is certainly a change from what I usually see in your gallery of natural landscapes. I love the perspective here, the tunneling is a good feature and provides that depth you were after. It is obvious that the red is somewhat overpowering, but I doubt any colour corrections would change this too much, but I spose you want to keep it as similar to the real thing as possible. I can't say I enjoy this image, but you are brave for having posted it. The top 1/3 is the best part. May require a slight sharpen. Thanks again.
Merry Christmas to you!
Matt

A strange image to contemplate. I wouldn't have known what it was without your very helpful notes. Looks like something out of a science fiction film! Thanks for sharing. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Hello Renier,
This image is a far cry from what can be seen in your native New Zeland. The way you have captured this scene makes it appear like a Si-Fi movie set. Very strong saturated colors with lovely muted detail. A Very Merry Christmas to you and yours.

As dazzling as Vegas itself, Renier. LV is one of my favorites cities in US. I love renting a car at the airport and get out to the canyons. It's in Nevada by the way, not Arizona. Best wishes,

Hi Renier,
Strangely beautiful! It could be used as a set for a scifi movie. Or a sequel of F. Coppola's "One from the heart"... You did a great job with the POV, light and colours. The sharpness isn't perfect, but I suspect that it would be very difficult to achieve better.
Regards, José.
I wish you a Happy New Year!

Hi Renier. The phrase “only in America” springs to mind here! Must have been an experience all the same. Well captured, vivid colours and good perspective. Thanks for sharing.
All the best for Oh eight, Paul.

Hello Ren,
I like the low perspective here showcasing the roof. Quite artistic, the red is intense but attractive. You did travel quite a bit in a span of few weeks. Next time, stop by Wash D.C. Happy new year.

Hello Renier and Happy New Year :-) LOts of light and work to put this ceiling together. I like the red tint from the lights and the figures. This is definitely a one of a kind place and a good picture to present at this time of the year. Thanks :-)

A very striking image, Renier. Leave it to Vegas to provide the context for this other-wordly effect. But your POV and low shooting angle are just great, and the red really dominates and grabs the eye. Well done!

Hello Renier
Not an easy image to take, but very well done. The perspective is finely done & the red is overwhelming, with the figurines on the roof. Your note is an excellent accompaniment. Good work!
