LV Fountain by Dee Golden

Las Vegas, Nevada, USA

Someone can tell me what famous fountain this is a copy of in Las Vegas, Nevada, USA in front of the Paris Casino. Yes, there was some removal of distracting lights and street lamps but basically this is a straight out of the camera night shot. Taken Tue, Mar 19, 2002 at 1:30 A.M.

Hi Bev, I got a few of the fountains at the Bellagio, but I wasn't too happy with them. I took this one at 1:30 a.m. and the Bellagio stopped around midnight so I missed it. The next day we had to head home. Next trip, if I ever get out there again! There's a nice fountain inside the Paris Casino, but I didn't take enough time to get a really decent shot. We were trying to see as much as we could, sort of "scoping" out the lay of the land so to speak. I had no idea there was so much walking and I just was too exhausted. After a nap I got my second wind, and we took off about 11 p.m. and returned around 2 a.m. Was nice and cool and not too crowded. I felt safe and I had my daughter with me so it's not like I was wandering around alone or anything. There were enough people around too to feel safe, but not so many that it was too crowded to get good shots. This fountain is mobbed in the day time.

Dee, the night lighting really brings out the beautiful features of this interesting fountain; and I like how the fountain contrasts well with the dark background and the glass-like quality of the water. Thanks for posting it. MFC

Dee - This is a great shot of this fountain. We stayed at the Paris the first week in April, & I failed, also, to get the name of the fountain which cooled us several times a day. I really like your perspective. Did you get any pictures of the fountains at the Bellagio? Bev
