Photographer’s Note
As I wrote on my first Las Vegas note (Artificial City), it is not my cup of tea but I enjoyed the opportunity to see Las Vegas, Nevada. This immense playground is a kind of artificial city, with lots of fake sites, such as this Eiffel Tower, a half size version of the real one in Paris. (They say it is half size, but for me it seems smaller than that.)
Location in WikiMapia: 36.1124486, -115.1721025.

Hi Francisco,
This is superb photo. Well composed and exposed. Excellent POV. It is sharp and well focused. Fantastic colors.

Hi Francisco,
that's a nice pic, I like the composition and the effect of long exposure on the fountain, but I'm afraid the f value was too low for that exposure time.
Did you spend a nice time in Vegas?
ah... take a look at the workshop!
Abraço,
Beijo

Beautiful light and colors.
an incredible scene... but impossible with the original cause there's no fountain so closer
so a good idea, and well done

Hi Francisco,
I really do think this is the only photo left on which I have not commented and it's technically quite a good photo with the sharp detail of the lights against the sky and the moving water in the fountain can hold it's own against the best of water falls. I guess I kept skipping it because we both hate vegas; but everybody's gotta see it once. Right?
Regards, Pat

Hey francisco,
Me again : what a beautifull shot. I mostly like the water colour in the waterfall. Sharpness is great, and point of view very well choosen.
Best regards

Olá Francisco,
Bela imagem da mini Torre Eiffel, gosto também da fonte (?) no primeiro plano. As cores estão ótimas e a qualidade da imagem excepcional.
Parabéns!
