On the upside, the Rain Forest Cafe in the MGM Grand casino in
Las Vegas is a really neat place to shoot amazingly colored photos.
When I was there last March, I shot a great photo of the front
of the RFC which I now use as the desktop photo on my Mac at work.
I had to tone down the colors quiet a bit so I could see objects
on my Mac's desktop, but I never fail to get comments from people
who visit my office for the first time.

I have the back of RFC outside my apartment window. Even though I know that
volcano erupts every hour after dark, it will still catch me by surprise
when I see a burst of flames cover the top half of the new Hilton tower.
