This week's winner came to us from @AriaLV.  The picture is a stunning view of the Crystals at City Center either at dusk or dawn.  As soon as I saw this pic, I knew it was going to be hard for anyone to beat but several people almost did.  @AriaLV also provided us with the "Random Vegas" like information via the fact that the Crystals roof has no 90 degree angles.
