Next set of aerial photos was taken flying from Phoenix back to Portland, leaving around 6pm and getting home late. So there are some photos taken around sunset, and a few taken while flying over Las Vegas. You can instantly tell it's Las Vegas and not some other random city in the desert because The Sphere is easily visible from 40,000 feet or so in the air. Thing is, if you get any semi-decent photos of it and show them to an elderly relative who hasn't heard of The Sphere, they'll ask you what it is and what it's for, and follow up with "But why, though?", and probably your best bet is to just read off what Wikipedia says about it and agree that it doesn't make any sense to you either.
All of that said, the 319 megapixel, 120fps Big Sky camera that was designed to film content for the Sphere looks rather interesting and if they gave me one I would be willing to give it a spin. I'm usually not that interested in fixed-lens video hardware, but I would be willing to make an exception in this particular case.
