Round trip tour of Flickr

Ok, I have to admit it took me quite a few tries to successfully attach photos to my blog but that's the beauty and "fun" of learning right? :o) But now that I have this newly acquired skill it was hard to pick just ONE picture... I picked two pictures partly because I couldn't decide which image I liked better and I wanted the extra practice of attaching photos.
I LOVE the perspective of this image of the Luxor Hotel in Las Vegas. I have actually stayed here twice and the whole unique concept of this hotel is mind blowing! That light is one of the brightest lights in the world... so bright in fact you are supposedly able to read a newspaper ten miles into space! There are starving people in this world and many other worthy causes money could be spent on, but only Vegas would blow millions of dollars to own "the world's brightest light". Everything is so over the top there... should I be surprised they wanted this light? I think that's why I'm so intrigued by this bubble world located in the middle of the Nevada desert...


Sunsets... there is just something about them that makes me thank God for His wonderful creations... Everytime I see a sunset it always makes me pause a moment to just enjoy the view. This particular sunset was taken in Kansas but the bright vibrant orange and yellow hues with the flat prairie stretching to the horizon remind me of my home province of Saskatchewan. Anyone from the prairies can agree that we are treated to some of the best sunsets anywhere!!!
