Paul Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 I was sitting around tonight going through some old photos as I try to organize my hard drive photo files by type of photo, man I should have started that a long time ago, I used to do everything by date, but I don't find that convienant anymore. Anyway were are some pics I took of Hoover Dam and Las Vegas 2 winters ago while out there on buisness. Looking over the top: From the Top of the Rio Hotel's topside bar. 53 floors up.

WifeKidsandDog Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 Great shots, the first one gives me that vertigo feeling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmeyer Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 Man, I really don't like them at all. I mean the pictures are great but I'm not so good with heights. My stomach wasn't so good after looking at those.Seriously, those are really great shots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Foss Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 Paul, if I lose my balance and fall out my office window it will be all your fault. Yikes! Like Mike, I don't like heights, but these ARE good pics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dbl Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 Nice pics, but man I am afraid of heights! These didn't help, I know I would not be leaning over and looking down like in #1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul Posted January 29, 2008 Author Share Posted January 29, 2008 It is defenitly an erie feeling looking over the side of the bridge. We had a guy from wisconsin with us who literally wouldn't get out of the car in the parking lot to walk across the bridge because he was so afraid of heights. Heights are not for everyone. Maybe I will have to post the picture of me 2/3 of the way up a 400ft radio tower. (beleive me, after 50ft everyone is afraid of heights). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jwhjr Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 I've been there a number of times and I always like looking down from the bridge. I've taken pictures as well, but they don't turn out as well as those. We did come across some video that my wife and I had where we took one of the tours in 1999 where you got to go out down at the bottom of your picture. They'd take you through some of the tunnels and bring you in to see the generators etc. Unfortunately since 9/11 they don't do that anymore.

Paul Posted January 30, 2008 Author Share Posted January 30, 2008 I did the tour in 1999 it was really neat inside. These pics were taken with an little ol olympus 5mb point and shoot. SO again proof that there is nothing wrong with point and shoot. I just prefer more buttons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
