Earlier this year I spent a few days in Las Vegas. My big take away is not a place I’d ever want to live – but a fun place to spend time photographing (and people watching). I spent several hours walking around the Bellagio Hotel photographing details that caught my eye. The botanical garden had a Chinese New Year display featuring lots of chrysanthemums. Here are a few of my photos from the Bellagio.

And of course the flowers and Chinese New Year decorations in the Botanical Garden

I found plenty photograph at the Bellagio. I also enjoyed a spectacular lobster omelet for brunch one morning!
I hope you’ve enjoyed seeing some of my photos from the Bellagio. I’ll be sharing photos from some of the other hotels in Las Vegas soon.
