In the first of a series of kinda disappointing galleries from my disappointing trip to Las Vegas let’s start with the Consumer Electronics Showcase or CES.  I didn’t manage to get my CES credentials until nearly 4pm on Friday so I didn’t get a chance to shoot it at all until Saturday. I was only there for about 3 hours because I was also shooting the Adult Entertainment Expo (AEE) and to get to CES you had to take a shuttle bus and it really screwed up the timing of everything.  So I shot about 200 pictures in three hours, which is not too bad until I realized that most of the pictures weren’t very good.

Still the CES was super fun.  I would way rather spent time there than the AEE, but AEE is way more photographic. People just don’t look that interesting looking at gadgets.  People at porn conventions are either half naked girls expecting to get their photos taken, or creepy weird guys getting autographs from people who fuck for a living.  Personally I’d rather spend my time standing in line to try cool new inventions or play with toys or get chances to win labtops.  Seriously, at CES everyone has some cool demo or is trying to give something away.  And not bullshit like bad porn, they are giving away computers and ipods and robotic dinosaurs. If I didn’t have to work, and had a friend with me I could spend all day there.

It’s a HUGE space and I was trying to cover a lot of area in a quick time so I can’t really tell you a lot of the highlights, but there are a million web pages dedicated to tech coverage so I will leave that to them.  I will point you towards all the photos I took and have you check that out.  In the mean time, I am going to go to Darkroom for my new party Circa and then I will return to you guys with photos from the AEE.  See you soon.
