Photo Essay: Las Vegas in Black and White

· BootsnAll

Las Vegas is known for its bright color and flashy appearance, but what happens when you strip the color from this usually vibrant city? With black-and-white photography, you have no choice but to see the details of a city otherwise defined by over stimulation. You can see the single light bulbs that light a building and the individual pieces of fur on the tiger at MGM Grand. In breaking down something larger than life, it’s easy to find the beauty in the black-and-white details.
