In the nearly half-year since the High Roller first opened to the public, more than 500,000 people have taken in the sights of Las Vegas from its apex.

Thousands of photos of the observation wheel have been posted on social media, and dozens of celebrities have ridden the wheel (at 550 feet, the world’s tallest), helping it gain even more exposure. The hashtag #HighRoller has been used on Twitter more than 3,000 times in the past month, most often regarding the wheel, not big spenders.

We asked our Facebook fans to submit their favorite shots of — or from — the High Roller using At the Scene. Check out the photo gallery above to see what they submitted, and send us your own using the At the Scene function on the new RJ app.
