The Vegas That I Did Not Remember: A Photo Essay
As I discussed in my post about returning to Las Vegas, Nevada, a previous home of mine, what I remembered versus what I saw when I returned was jarring.

The purpose of this photo essay is to highlight the juxtaposition between the lived experiences of Las Vegas residents and tourists.
