Las Vegas China Town

The China Town in Las Vegas is actually an Asian District along the main street of Spring Mountain Road, where it filled with restaurants, shops, markets, services and auto mechanics. 
I personally do most of my Asian grocery shoppings there, and often luncheons with friends, or place my dinner to go orders.  For a mid size city like Las Vegas, the area of the district it covers, and variety of services it provides are pretty impressive. Being close to the Strip, it naturally attracts tourists as well.
For photography, there are so many colors and Asian motifs around that can sometimes visually over crowded and distracting.  I had to constantly remind myself to stay focus on simple elements and once again try looking at my surrounding with a new perspective and different angle. Because the colors are so brilliant, I had to tune down the saturation in post process, or even to transform images to B&W in order to express the architectural lines and shapes in some cases.
