Description
Before you stone me for the crappy technical quality of this image, please keep in mind that it was shot hand held with a 50mm lens whose autofocus was broken...
Now, this was shot from the top of the Mandalay Bay Hotel looking up the strip in Las Vegas. Those of you who know the city will recognize some well known hotels like the Luxor, Excalibur, MGM Grand, New York New York etc. In the distance you can see the Stratosphere. Incidently, the light on top of the Luxor (black pyramid hotel in the foreground) shining up is visible from space.
Thank you for your visit and your very welcome comments and favs on my previous upload.
Hugs

I not sure why you find this poor quality! I'd be really pleased if it were mine. But, unlike my brother who loved visiting here, I would find it a living hell!
Fantastic night view! Wonderful shot! :)
A place to see at night for sure - no Eskom load shedding here! This works! Clive
Nothing wrong with this shot Carin in fact it's rather spectacular.
There's nothing wrong with the quality of this shot! It's fantastic - great view of the Strip and the lights.
Nowt wrong with this my dear, infact its rather excellent.
Amazing photo. I am familiar with a 50MM lens. Really impressive results!
Beautiful
still a beautiful shot, such a wonderful lights...well taken
very cool picture!!!!!!!
I agree with every one nothing wrong with the quality of this night capture. Pretoria is a nightmare for me. I just cant imagine how i could cope in such a busy city as you have captured on camera at night time.
I gotta say Las Vegas is fun to visit but god I'd hate to live there! I love the light on the Luxor. The prime lens would have been fine and shooting an SLR in manual is the way to go! At night without a tripod though, you have done well to get what you got! Maybe lengthening the exposure and sitting the camera on the pile of money ya won!!!!!!!
Very wonderful picture. Love the colors
What a gorgeous composition, great!!!
Beautiful colors on this beautiful night scene !
What's this? I think this handheld shot of Sin City came out extremely well, considering the adverse conditions under which it was taken. All that glitz and glamour on display, and I marvel at all the lights, neon and otherwise, just sucking up tons of electricity, probably all generated from Hoover Dam, one of beachzz's favorite stomping grounds.
Fantastic and colourful capture, Carin I think it is a great shot
Nice colors, auto focus? Who needs it. I'll give you a little lesson. "The more automation you use the less control you have " Ansel Adams. I've never forgotten what the great man said. I think you did very well for a hand held exposure, but I would rather look at God's great garden. Well done miss Carin
The colours are amazing at night in Vegas, aren't they? I've visited often, and I'd hate to live there, but I love seeing this view any time I can!
I think its a brilliant shot!!!
Sin City colours for sure and what a concrete jungle - mesmerising and unbelievable - at the same time, the broken auto-focus didn't do it any harm, illuminating Carin, BB
nice job
A wonderful clear capture of this colourful night scene.
This is a fantastic shot; it really captures the essence of Las Vegas!!
Cool!
Excellent find with all these lights and these colors! M.
Cant see any bad quality here, Carin. I find it very beautiful indeed.
Great shot!
A great and inventive foto...
Captured the essence of Sin City! love this shot. sometimes we are our own worst critics.
