Why this group is rated one of Vegas Bob's best groups at Activerain!

With over 30 groups at the Activerain Network this is by far the best of the best when it comes to photography. There are some other wonderful groups don't get me wrong but for Vegas Bob he does more (EXPRESSING) of photographs at this group over all the others ...........

EXPRESS WITH PHOTOGRAPHS AT ACTIVERAIN

There are members that have made comments, what do these photographs have to do with Real Estate?

Well take a look at the photograph (above & below) and tell me if you see any Real Estate in these two photographs?

Robert Swetz (Vegas Bob) sells Commercial Real Estate and these buildings in the photographs do come up for sale some times. I also sell High rise Luxury Condos and many of the photographs I post are Condos for sale.

I also post stories with photos attached for people that have never been to Las Vegas Nevada and have a interest in visiting some day. I alone have posted over 1000 blogs to this group alone ..............

Cockroach as big as a Dog & Alien Squirrel!

Sat, 07 Nov 2009 22:22:39 -0600

When I was at my parents home visiting I looked up on one of their book stands and this huge cockroach was looking down at me, it was as big as a dog. I asked my parents how this (roach) grew to be so big and they said it had become exposed to some radiation.

Then as I was leaving their home I saw this Squirrel in the tree and it's eyes were glowing, I snapped a photograph with no flash to show others. With the eyes glowing like this the Squirrel looks like it might be from another world.

I think I have been watching to many Sci-fi movies and programs

I just came out of the Theater after viewing "The Fourth Kind" and I am very disturbed!

Here is a post I wrote several days ago about the new movie "The Fourth Kind" and after viewing this film I became very disturbed and creeped out.

New movie premiering Friday 11-6-2009 - (The Fourth Kind)

My friend Travis Walton has experienced something very similar to what happened to some people in Nome Alaska and after viewing this film I feel very sorry for anyone that has experienced this type of Paranormal Activity.

Thu, 05 Nov 2009 07:09:13 -0600

I would like to give a special thanks to the (Activerain Network!)

January 1st 2010 will be two years that I have been with the (Activerain Network), and it only seems like yesterday.

I have formed around 30 different groups, have posted around 1500 blogs, have created (google juice) like never before and created a huge group of friends.

I continue to be contacted by people around the world, and leads continue to pour in.

The (Activerain Network) has helped my Real Estate Business grow, my Photography grow, and has connected me with different Investors around the world.

I never thought in a million years that the (Activerain Network) would become as big, interesting, or rewarding as it has become for me.

I am so connected to the (Activerain Network) that I hope they never pull the plug, I would be depressed for many months to come.

I really don't think people realize just how powerful the (Activerain Network) is?

I would personally like to thank the (Activerain Network) and staff from the bottom of my heart ..........

This Plug is for you (Activerain)!

Thank you from Robert Swetz (Vegas Bob) where ever you are!

1980 Business Card Photo Challenge... Who's Brave Enough?

Tue, 03 Nov 2009 22:00:08 -0600

This has to be one of the best posts I have read & viewed in a long time, and the comments are fantastic!

Very hard to believe that this post was not featured by the AR Gods because it has feature written all over it.

I was born in 1958 and this photograph of me was taken in 1980 when I use to model clothing, taken in Portland Oregon when I was living there.

The shoes I wore in this photo are what they called Beatle boots and I purchased several pairs in Vancouver Washington, these ones happen to be a green color!

My Darlin' says I have a lot of nerve posting this photo.

It's me. Thirty years ago in upstate New York...

Do you still have a business card photo from that ancient date?

Are you brave enough to endure the LMAO's?

Would ANYONE you know in the Rain be able to put your "today" photo together with your 1980 photo?

Oh, I know there are those out there who haven't changed the glamour photo on your business card in the last decade. Some of you are right here in Tucson, working for... Well, never mind. I'd only get in trouble.

Anyhow, those of you who were in diapers in 1980 needn't comment. Let's hear from those who were born before 1960.

Don't be shy. And please do upload a photo. Tell us where you were when it was taken. LOL!

Is now really a good time to purchase a home?

Sun, 01 Nov 2009 07:07:41 -0600

Is now really a good time to purchase a home?

All I ever hear from other agents, people, media, etc. is (Now) is the time to purchase a home.

1) because the homes are priced write

2) because the interest rates are down

3) because first time home buyers were getting $8,000.00 dollars from the Feds!

I know I sell Real Estate and I have to make a living myself but to encourage people to purchase homes to put money in my own pocket is not reason enough.

Unemployment rates are rising and with this why would you want to have your clients purchase a home if there is a chance they may become unemployed.

We as agents need to know more about our clients, is their job secure, etc.

And if your clients jobs are not secure and they struggle to make their house payments this might just leed to more foreclosures.

So agents I would suggest something before you get all excited about getting you client into a new home.

Know your client so you don't continue setting yourself up for what some people are comparing us to, a

(Car Sales Person)!

So back to my question ..............

Is now really a good time to purchase a home?

It depends!

God displays his beauty for Robert Swetz in a moving way!

Sat, 31 Oct 2009 07:01:20 -0500

God displays his beauty for Robert Swetz in a moving way!

I have traveled many places around the world and photographed God's beauty but when I came across this scene I was very moved.

God displays his beauty to all people and so many of us miss the change to take it in.

Well I made sure I didn't pass up this moment and after taking several photographs of this scene I sat by the water, took in deep breaths of fresh air and looked in awe at what was before my eyes.

Please try to take time out in your busy week and get out and search areas of beauty like this one.

If I was to ever have a retirement home I would love to have a view like this out my windows & or patio, I really don't know if I would ever become bored with looking at a scene like this.

"This view is quite breath taking!"

Can you guess where this photograph may have been taken or what lake this is?

If your clients asks if a house or building is Haunted, can you tell them?

Fri, 30 Oct 2009 22:58:55 -0500

If your clients asks if a house or building is Haunted, can you tell them?

State Regulation across the country are different for disclosing if properties are Haunted or there has been a suicide or murder.

What are your State Regulations for clients asking you questions about these subjects.

In the State of Nevada it is a (No-No)! You can be fined and loss your license for disclosing such information.

Now on the other hand this building above the Goldfield Hotel in Goldfield Nevada is not for sale. And so I can tell you it is Haunted big time, (Ghost Busters) television program was visiting the Goldfield Hotel several months ago and there is so much Ghost activity going on around there it would make your head spin!

You know kind of like "The Exorcist" with Linda Blair.

The (photo below) is another very, very Haunted building in Goldfield, the school right next to the police station.

This lady I spoke with mentioned to me that police officers are always viewing and hearing very strange activity coming for the school.

And the home below on main street in Goldfield, very, very haunted!

And my last photo below is Haunted and I really like this one because if you look real close you can see the glass bottles used to build the walls sticking out the sides.

So if a client ever asks you if a home/ building is Haunted or if persons have been murdered or committed suicide in the home/ building, you better know your disclosures in the State where your license hangs.

"Have a wonderful day and Happy Haunting"

Beautiful Rainbow Falls .........

Fri, 30 Oct 2009 21:32:44 -0500

Beautiful Rainbow Falls ........

When I was a teenager we use to hike through the mountains of Oregon and northern California and I have always been amazed by waterfalls.

The water falling over the rocks to create a white, blue, green color and the noise of the water can be so relaxing and hypnotic. And sometimes if you hike down by the bottom of a waterfall there is a mist, rainbow and the odor of fresh water.

I have photographed 100s of waterfalls through my life and most of my photographs are all gone, lost, misplaced, etc.

My goal next year will be to photograph more waterfalls like the one in the photo (above).

This photograph was taken in Mammoth Lakes California and it is quite a site to see, later in the afternoons the sun will shine through the mist of this waterfall creating a beautiful Rainbow.

We hiked down to early in the morning so we missed the rainbow at this waterfall called "Rainbow Falls"

Can anyone please tell me what this person is sitting on and where these rocks might be located?

These rocks are some of the strangest rock formations I have ever seen and when I came across them I had to really take a close look at them. These rock formations are millions of years old and it looks like this person in the photographs is either meditating or trying to capture the energy from them.

The first photograph is towards the bottom of the rocks and the photo below is the very tops of the rocks. What are these strange rocks?

And where do you think there located?

I will reveal the answer later Wed. evening 10-28-2009

If you look real close at the photograph above most of the rock patches have 5 sides to them and this is all natural, the lines were not cut into the rocks.

Vegas Bob lost around 700 points yesterday because his computer crashed!

Yes it's true my computer was down yesterday and I wasn't very happy about it because I average approximately between 700-1000 points per day.

So now I have to make up for it but I have to work a 12 hour shift!

Later this evening I will be posting around 3 special blogs to make up for the loss and I do want to apologize to everyone.

"Good Morning Activerain Members" and here is a Halloween sunrise to get you in the mood!

Check out the deep red orange colors of this sunrise, it looks kind of scary and Halloweenish. This photo was taken on Cross Lake in Minnesota and I have posted several others that are very similar, but not the same.

This sunrise was so impressive that I took around 100 pics because the colors would change every minute or so.
