Burning Man, Black Rock Desert, Nevada, 8/07

The Burning Man festival in Black Rock Desert, Nevada, was an amazing experience. The magnificent art, glorious mutant vehicles and shimmering neon nightscapes were highlights. I have posted a few favorite photos from my Burning Man debut. This year attendance surged to 40,000 festival-goers. It was a love-hate experience for me so we shall see if I return to Burning Man.

Traveling in style	These motorized cupcakes charmed me!	Looks like pure Hollywood!	Welcome to Black Rock Desert, Nevada
Unique bicycles and mutant vehicles abound	Theme camps made the desert lively	Riding around from artwork to artwork was fun	Interpretation is up to the viewer
This was part of a massive installation several stories high	Cool drinks and snacks are not hard to come by	This whimsical treehouse sprouted up	We waited in line for an hour to get into the event.
I practiced my headstand	The artists do not post their names	The Taj Mahal of the Playa	A creative mode of transport
Shade of all sorts is helpful in the heat	The temple ceiling	It was so intricate	John and Cory car-caravaned with us from Santa Cruz
John built a solar shower for our camp	We had a fun time doing yoga on the playa	We worshipped this bike	Burning Man has lots of bikes, costumes and color
Everyone gets to express himself	I skated at this desert RollerDisco	Riding home before sunset	There is mostly bike traffic in the desert
I used it as a landmark for my camp	All the art is anonymously created	This fellow was still building his artwork	One of many art cars
This is the temple that was burned to the ground on Sunday night	Lovely bike	Nice floral basket	This man loved his leg extensions
One of my favorite artworks	What a balancing act!	Plenty of time to chat	I followed them around
This one has an extra boost = Prozac pills!	A sweet farewell	Another theme camp	The lantern carriers labor
Easy rolling around on this bus	An orange ball = why not?	Putt putt golf anyone?	Colorful costumes rule
Sculpture at its finest	Vehicles had to register with the Burning Man DMV	DMV - Department of Mutant Vehicles	One showstopper car
Asking for directions perhaps?	French Maids Norman and Karen	We prepared dinner for 40 members of our camp, The Quackers	This was our group home where we had meals. Our sleeping quarters, tents, were separate.
