The first two photos are shot with an Australian camera.

 

I have a friend with a B-52 simulator. Typically fly out of Nellis and use Hoover Dam as a bomb target. Really close to Nellis and it's easy to find. His setup is in FS9. Can't wait to see this in DCS 2.0 NTTR.

Back in the days when I shot film, instead of digital, I would get those Australian style images if I put the film in upside-down. :P

I've been there about 7-8 times, really awesome every time I see it. I have not been there since the bridge has been open though.

I have only been there once, it is way bigger than pictures show. When I was there, the new bridge was still under construction, which was cool to watch.

DCS: F-4E really needs to be a thing!!!!!!

Were you flying the Huey when you took the first two snaps? Because if I was flying the Huey I would be upside down :P

 

Edit: If I'm not mistaken there is a man inside one of those concrete blocks about 1/2 way down isn't there? Some poor guy fell in, but the concrete set too fast?
