Photos of Nevada |
| Las Vegas is a city that never sleeps. It might just be more of a "city of lights" than New York. Vegas is both colorful and photogenic. The desert surrounding Las Vegas also has some terrific scenery to offer to anyone that likes to hike or enjoys natural scenic beauty. I begin this collection with some photos from The Valley of Fire State Park, about 90 miles from Vegas, as well as some night time shots of the resorts along the Las Vegas strip.
