There's as much to see off the strip as there is on the strip.Las Vegas is one of the most photographed cities in the world and the famous landmarks of The Strip are instantly recognizable. But Las Vegas has much more to offer than casinos and hotels and I hope my photographs capture the unique beauty of this fascinating city.  The swirling colors and designs of Freemont Street of old Las Vegas.  Celtic music at Nine Fine Irishmen in New York, New York.  Prickly pear cactus.
 Desert wildflower from Red Rock Canyon.
 An unfortunate "test subject" at the Atomic Test Museum.  I highly recommend the western omelette at Tiffany's Diner. When in doubt, go all out when it comes to breakfast!
 Vegas can look surprisingly lush and green for a desert city.  Looks like one classic tourist shot made it into the mix after all! If you enjoyed this photo essay, you'll also like:

All of Vegas is a bit of another planet! It's such an artificial city in the midst of such incredible, unspoiled nature. Vegas can be a bit overwhelming but when you balance it out with the zen-like desert it makes it much more manageable.

Isn't Tiffany's great! They do an amazing breakfast! 11/6/2014 04:55:05 am
I love/hate Las Vegas! It's such an overwhelming circus, but you did the right thing by getting off the Strip!

More love/hate for Vegas! Even a short visit should include an off-strip excursion. 20/6/2014 06:22:52 am
Vegas baby! Great article, the lights of Fremont street are always stuck in my head. Vegas is really one of those weird places in the US you can go and have a completely different experience every single time.

Such a good point - even if someone had a bad first trip to Vegas, they could go back and have a totally different experience the second time around and they would love it. 21/7/2014 03:02:53 pm
Such vivid colours! I think I would enjoy Vegas, even though the attraction I most wanted to see -- The Liberace Museum -- has closed down. The Nuclear Test Museum looks like my kind of place, even with the scary mannequin.

It was indeed a Vanessa Omelet - for those that don't know, this is a Western minus meat and cheese - just onions and green peppers!! Comments are closed.
