Burning Man is a melting pot of technology, science, religion, art, music and free
expression. Nowhere can one see so many diverse opinions and ideologies come
together and coexist with one mission in mind… to be open and accepting to a broad
range of thought.
Burning Man is also a visual feast of giant art installations, costumes and light
against the white canvas of the Black Rock desert in Nevada, a difficult place not
to capture spectacular images with your personal iPhone. My approach is somewhat
different, to focus much tighter, on individual stories and the release of
expression that lay dormant in us for the other 51 weeks a year.

Harry Kerker forwarded a couple of his Burning Man photographs to me. I applaud the approach he took of combining black and white and color. It adds a slightly surreal quality to a very surreal event.
I’ve always wanted to go, but I am so pale that I would be so sunburned on the first day that I would be hospitalized for the rest of the event.
