Hello -- I'm scarcely around these days, and I'm in the middle of a career change, so I probably *still* won't be until that stabilizes, but my friend Mr. Nightshade (http://theblight.net/) just got back from Burning Man, and took some interesting pictures I thought I'd share that might be of general interest. I don't go myself (I'm a bit too femme to wind up in the *desert* for a week), but every time I see photos like his, sometimes I reconsider.
The full series is up here. (http://theblight.net/09/bm/)
A dust storm. (http://theblight.net/09/bm/slides/05PICT121572.html)
The temple. (http://theblight.net/09/bm/slides/17PICT120688.html)
Heh. Close. (http://theblight.net/09/bm/slides/50PICT121695.html)
Reasonable desert-wear. (http://theblight.net/09/bm/slides/101PICT120668.html)
City in the distance. (http://theblight.net/09/bm/slides/123PICT120753.html)
Art, evocative to me of some elemental shrine. (http://theblight.net/09/bm/slides/141PICT120916.html)
Clearly constructed by a ex-pat northern Krathi. (http://theblight.net/09/bm/slides/155PICT121557.html)
best,

Cripes! I always wanted to be in a real dust storm :'(
Some cool pictures. A few NSFW.
Makes me want to start up a raiding team.

But you already--
--oh, in real life.
This event intrigues me almost bad enough to want to do it one day.
Almost.
