Vegas Night Shots
Lens: DA Limiteds Camera: Pentax K-01 Photo Location: Las Vegas 
Posted By: fotogaffer, 05-07-2013, 06:05 PM

We spent a couple of days and nights flying in and out of Vegas on the way to Utah for Zion and Bryce Canyon. I'm not much of the Vegas type, so rather than spend time in the casinos, I had some fun with some night photos and long exposures. The K-01 on a gorrillapod got some funny looks from the Can-Nikon folks!

I LOVE the last two! Wow - that k-01 is some little camera, eh? Been thinking about picking it up and the da 40. Seems like a really nice walkaround kit.

Nice series, especially Gallery Row. I may try some night shots next time I'm there.

Thanks Ari. I really like the K-01, and it does make a nice walkaround kit I think. I'm sure you would enjoy it too, especially at the current prices!

Thanks SpecialK. Night shots are fun, not my usual fare!

Thanks Dave. Sounds like you have been a frequent visitor to Vegas. My brother who lives in Red Deer gets down there regularly as well. I guess it's more accessible to you Albertans than to us easterners.

Thanks Bob. Best thing was, it didn't cost me a dime either to be out shooting!

Great images, from the K-01.

This place is just as big and bold at night as it is during the day!
