Hi everybody,
My name is Dana Pommet and my wife’s name is Josephine. I was born in Gloucester, Massachusetts, in 1942, and except for a tour in the Navy, lived there for most of my life. I retired to Delray Beach, Florida in December 2000. We love to travel and photography goes hand and hand with that. I went digital about 5 years ago and started posting November 22, 2008. I have met so many wonderful people on RR and that makes this whole process so much more interesting than just posting photos. Thanks for all the comments and keep them coming.
Update  January 2012: After hiding and denying my mild Dyslexia, for most of my professional life, and now fighting with its advancement – I want to thank you all for putting up with my poor typing skills and spelling problems. I know that my spell checker hates me and I now depend completely on audio books rather then actually reading printed books.  Life marches on!  Â

I will never see the original in Egypt but if I ever get a few bucks together, I'd be pleased as punch to see this reproduction in Vegas. Until then, I'm gonna enjoy your capture of it. Wonderful pov.

My Husband and I vacationed in Las Vegas Last year.. and stayed at the Luxor.. Being an Egyptian fan and knowing that I would never get to see the real thing, It was a real Treat for me... If you haven't been already you may be out of luck.. when we were there they were decommissioning it.. and it was under renovation to get rid of the Egyptian theam. What a shame. What I saw was exquisite. Your Picture is really great.. you got a really good shot there.

Las Vegas must be a very strange place, so many things out of context, it must be like a waking dream, my son has visited, but not as yet myself.

Excellent POV, perspective, clarity and composition, Dana! I can see the people, but they are so infinitesimal I can barely make them out.

I also spent a long weekend there once; it was absolutely gorgeous, and as with almost everything in Las Vegas, much much bigger than it appears! Great shot!
