I asked security the night before if I could take pictures in the casino. He told me I could in this casino as long as I did not get up close to the slots as they were tumbling. It was earlier in the morning and security was watching me from everywhere. So the best thing I did was to go up and confront them by talking to them. It would have been nice to get the tripod out and take pictures of people but I think that would have been pushing it a bit. |

Quite the game, I feel a wider angle could've done somethign for your composition. |

A game lots of us would like to win. Photo is a little dark on my monitor. And where are all the people? |

But I couldn't afford to insure/drive it unless I won ANOTHER jackpot! |

Good exposure in a tough situation. Did you have to get permission to shoot there? Signpost detracts, but I don't guess there was much you could do about it. |

Too much reflection on the top half of the photo. |

i think i would have liked more of a focus on a specific slot machine than the car. also, the lighting isnt very good. it feels like a snapshot taken as you were leaving the casino. |

I'd love to win that car. There's no one trying though. Strange folks. A player at one of the stations would've added a little more interested to the shot IMO. But well captured. |

Heh....and I thought *I* parked creatively! ;-) |

the post blocking the car is a hassle. Light reflections on the car and ceiling are a bit distracting too. Would have loved to have seen some old woman with blue hair playing the 3rd machine from the right :) |

I don't know what it is about this photo. Maybe a cropping of the bottom black, or better lighting. |

How were you able to get this shot...nice effect |

I like how this looks like a fish eye shot, because of the way the slot machines curve around, even though it isn't. I'm surprised they let you take a pic in the casino -- but I also seem to remember a forum thread about something like that -- so maybe they made you stop. The midtones here seem a little dark. I can just barely make out some of the features that I would think should be a little more visible (like the chairs at the machines). |

Lot of reflections here, but nothing you could do about that probably, they don't take away from the photo though. Nice job, did you win the car? |

How did you get this picture? I don't know of any casinos that allow cameras. I thought the slots would make a good picture. :o) |

That is a shiny car! CAN I HAVE IT! |

Hee, hee, that's a game alright. :) FUN shot, good work. Hope you win a new T-bird. |

Surprised they let you shoot here. I really like the concept. Giving you an extra point just for having the guts to try it. |

Do they let you take pictures in the casino? What time did you take this. |
|

I thought of going to a casino but a friend convinced me they didn't allow photographs there. I'd also be interested to know what time you went that there weren't people playing the slot machines. I wonder what it would have looked like with people though. |
