I'm going to be in Las Vegas and free during the day on 15SEP and 16SEP while my wife's speaking at a conference. Anyone with any suggestions on what to shoot and whether I should get a rental car to shoot outside of Las Vegas in the immediate (within 1 hour drive) vicinity? I expect I'll be doing some night shots on the strip, but what else is a must see/shoot? Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks. |

Hoover/Boulder Dam isn't too far away. Take extra batteries and your security clearance : )

I really enjoyed Red Rock Canyon. Go early in the morning or later in the evening.

I'd get the rental car and go to the Valley of Fire State Park. |

You have so little time, you won't know where to start anyway.
The strip alone can keep you busy for a couple of days, some of the casinos/hotels take ages to just walk through, let alone take photos.
Red Rock Canyon takes several hours at a gallop.
I enjoyed Bonnie Springs, too. It's a "Wild West" town, complete with cheesy shows and a "hanging". It's corny, but fun.
Don't worry about running out of photo opportunities - you won't! |

I'm not worried about running out of photo ops. I just want to maximize what little time I have, as I don't expect to be returning anytime in the near future. |
