Welcome to the first post of 2023 for this blog, I would love to hear from you about what you would like to see here this year. Fewer posts, more posts, more content in the form of writing, and fewer photos? Please let me know. These nine photos are from last year and all the way back to 2015, looking back on the history of Las Vegas Photoblog. Happy New Year to my friends!
John, I wish the best for you and yours in 2023!
I love what you do and always enjoy your photos! Happy New Year.
Happy 2023! I’m a fan of your photography, so I’d be okay with even more photos, even if that means more posts 🙂
I love color, no matter the subject. I do enjoy the work that you share with us.
Thank you so much, Rebecca! I really appreciate you. Sorry for the delayed reply.
Have a wonderful New Year John .thank you for sharing this. Thanks Anita
Thank you! I love sharing my photography. 😎
I really enjoy your landscape photos. Those mountains and big skies 😊
Thanks again, Belinda! Those mountains are one of the main reasons I stayed here in 2016 after the divorce. The climate and landscape are so different from my Michigan home. The huge storm system that has been pounding the Pacific Northwest for some time has also been giving us a lot of overcast and plenty of rain last night. I’m sure it will eventually move out of town and give us our beautiful blue sky back.
Have a great year, John. Keep doing what makes you happy.
Thanks so much, Anneli! 😁
Happy New Year, John, and beautiful first post! Just keep doing what your do, you always bring so much color to my days!
That is so kind of you, Marcus, thank you so much! 👍🏻😎
Wonderful collection and I look forward to enjoying another beautiful year in Las Vegas and plenty of shots of that delicious chili!! Happy New Year!!😁
Thank you so much my friend! I am known internationally as the Chili Man apparently! 🤣
😁
🌶️
Just keep the images coming John. You are my inspiration!
Wow, Richard, thanks so much my friend! You are so kind. 👍🏻😁🇬🇧
Happy New Year, John. I hope 2023 is a great year for you and you continue to share your photos of the ‘real’ Las Vegas. 😁
Thank you so much, Anne Marie! I will continue posting in 2023 for sure. I show the areas of this city that those tourists will likely never see which is where we locals live.
I haven’t visited the Strip in a long time which is kind of a shame but I just don’t feel safe there and parking can be hell! The big venues used to let the locals park free but that ended a couple of years ago.
Now, just how greedy is that? They have millions yet won’t us park at no cost. Guess what? I will spend my money elsewhere!
I have never been excited about visiting that area of Vegas. 😉
That’s understandable, and sorry for that rant but I dislike the greed. 😁
I’m just not into gaudy. 🙄 Or crowds, or noise.
Crowds aren’t for everyone, I can handle them to a point. Gaudy is terrible in many ways, especially in home design and car designs.
Hi John, Happy New Year! I enjoy all of your photos. It’s easier for me to review them via Instagram on a more frequent basis. For blogging, it’s only once a week as you can tell. I enjoy seeing the places in Vegas since I’ll likely never make it there. You always frame things so well, so I learn from your composition. I agree with all the comments – it’s your blog, do what you enjoy doing and it shines through!
Oh my gosh, thank you sooo much for your sweet comment, Shelley! So very kind. ☺️ I have noticed your once-a-week visits here and more frequently on IG, thanks so much! I didn’t know that you are learning from my compositions, that is a huge thing for me, Shelley, again, thank you so much! ❤️
You’re welcome, I’m glad to support your efforts!! 😊
Awww thank you! ☺️
Wonderful! Happy New Year full of love peace and joy dear friend! 🤗🥰🎊🍾🥂💕💞🌟💕💕
hello, Giada, thanks very much and the same for you! I sincerely appreciate your follow! ❤️
You are most welcome! Thank you infinitely from my heart dear friend! 🥰❤️
Aww. ❤️❤️
This is a lovely gallery. I’d prefer one post a day, for the same reason as Lavinia
Thank you, Derrick! You aren’t the only person to mention that one post per day would be better, I have thought about doing just that but obviously have not. I limit them to 5 per day but it used to be basically unlimited which was never a good idea. I suppose that two or three per day would be better for my viewers/readers. Thanks for your comment, Derrick!
Beautiful!
Thank you very much, Inge! I really appreciate your stopping by my site. ❤️
Happy New Year! 3️⃣1️⃣🕛1️⃣
Thank you, Cindy, and to you and yours too. I sincerely appreciate your stopping by so often, thank you!!!! ❤️☺️
Just keep it coming.
Thanks very much for your comment, Richard! That means a lot. 👍🏻☺️
The photos are always beautiful, John! One daily post would be easier to keep up with, but you should do what feels comfortable to you, what fits your likes and personal schedule. I’ll visit as often as I can.
Thanks very much, Lavinia! My schedule used to be an unlimited number of posts per day, but I stopped that at least a year ago. It was a photo overload. For some time now, the daily number has been at five per day, rarely six. I am sure there are more than one (you) out there that prefer one or two per day but I just put out a lot of content. I have the time. i recently considered just one per day for two good reasons and may switch to that this year.
John, you be you. I’ll read and comment when I can. Wishing you the happiest of new years. May it bring health, happiness, and peace.
Hi, Clay, thank you for your comment! Five posts per day is the limit right now but it was once much higher. There are well over 7000 posts on this site. Can it be called a blog with that much content? Thanks for your visiting when you can, happy new year!
Im happy to see anything you post John, though i must admit to seeing andfinding out about new places.
That’s good! Thank you for commenting, Ian. 👍🏻
Thanks very much, Ian! I am glad that you are finding new places via my photography. Wishing you and yours a blessed new year. ☺️🇬🇧😎
Happy New Year. Let your posts be what you want them to be. They are a reflection of you. May your new year be full of enjoyment and exploring the new and revisiting the familiar.
Thank you, Tim! I do revisit old photos, perhaps a bit too often.
You’re welcome. If you enjoy it do it. Within reason of course.
Yes, within reason, Tim. I used to upload daily with no limit but that stopped a good while back. Now, it’s 5 uploads per day max which is still a bit much for some visitors here. I do feel kinda bad about that!
