Vegas Peeps...just a few...

[Mira]

they barely knew I was even there.
I try to just chronicle on the run :)

[Celebration]

1. you go, girl!

Keep a diary.

Never been there, and probably never will. Looks colorful. New Orleans is kinda the sin city of the south (although you don't get the same type photos). :)

Is that a tiny Elvis????? :rofl:

2. With the sixth one

just taking out the color confirms what I suspected. It's very Diane Arbus:



Great set of photos! Travel always brings out your best work.

3. Yeah, really tells a story. The tourist is a faceless

outsider. The "sideshow characters" are the insiders. Two worlds.

[dixiegrrrrl]

4. My thought was that the faceless tourist was missing the real shot behind her.

Hell of a pic, says volumes.

5. The "normal" is alone, and the "freaks" have each other.

6. I love your travel pics, Mira.

What fun photos! :hi:

7. Vegas, which seems to be a very odd place for sure,

is somewhere I've never visited (and have never wanted to). Your pictures are great though and capture something completely foreign to my experience.

8. Oh. My. God!

Mira, these are fantastic photos! And I agree with JeffR that they are very Diane Arbus! You have managed to catch some exquisite moments, expressions, and provocative images! I keep looking and looking! I especially love the photographer near Elvis and Marilyn photo! Everything about it is perfect! It seems you have hit your stride with this series! Very nicely done!!!

9. Thanks for the shots

Now I really don't ever have to go to Vegas.

The only thing missing was the smell of the casino's.

10. Smoke, booze, cheap perfume, and $10,000 in the hole sweat?

11. I know exactly what that smells like - Used to work in Atlantic City casinos.

As a strolling performer.

12. I see casinos as one step up from carnies.
