haha been there done that - been to enough casion's where wins are characterized by walking out of the casino with that money - now if it gets re-invested later that day or the next you can still talk about the 'win'

The clouds in the second image are really something. My first thought was that you had used a long exposure and there was some fierce wind driving those clouds. Looking at the exif data showed that though to be wrong.

Very cool, indeed.

The clouds were moving fast so that did create some of the effect. I shot five from this location within a minute and the shots are totally different. I might post them all together to show the outcome. Thanks for commenting. JIM
