One of the assignments given at Skips Summer School in Las Vegas ( My photography conferance) was to work on previsiualizing shots we wanted to take. So I did a little practice after class that day.

I knew I wanted to go to the Bellagio – this of course was before I knew it was going to be a 25 minute walk in the desert heat, but thats another story – I knew I wanted to be standing directly in front of Bellagio smack dab in the middle of the building, I wanted to capture the fountains at dusk. I had an image already in my head before I ever walked out of my hotel.. which was exactly what we were supposed to practice!

So I hiked my way over to the Bellagio, weasled my way into the crowd that surrounded my perfect locatoin and stood ready at exactly 7:59pm.. 1 minute before the fountains were set to go off…. and this is what I captured.

After seeing what I was able to capture.. I decided that this previsiualization stuff might not be a bad idea after all!
