Cliché

is what I say when I make photographs of the Las Vegas Strip. Probably the reason behind that is I live here. Additionally, it is overly photographed and I believe that it belongs to the tourists. Or maybe I just take it for granted.

Well, I lived in India for my first twenty years, and I never photographed the city I lived in. Today, I am all excited about making photographs of my city whenever I take a trip to India. So what has changed? Maybe I do not take it for granted any more.  It has suddenly become an exotic location.

This is a lesson for me and I should change my attitude towards making photographs of the Las Vegas Strip. You never know…someday I may not belong here.
