Anti-Workshop: Neon Boneyard

The final day of the workshop was spent at the awesome Neon Boneyard, where old Vegas signs and structures go for their final resting place. Such a cool place to photograph! We were warned to be very very careful since the ground is mostly gravel and broken glass, plus the occasional rusty wire sticking out of the signs. John, Chenin, and Doug were doing a shooting demonstration with another one of John's wedding couples, so I had fun both observing them and exploring the artwork.

The friendly welcome sign. Special permission has to be granted to be able to shoot in here.

My first trip to Vegas was in 2006 for a chorus convention, where we stayed at the Stardust Hotel. It was demolished just a couple months later, so I was so excited to find the remnants of the hotel!
