There are lots and lots of pictures taken every year at Burning Man. With all the art and costumes around, it would be a crime to NOT take pictures. It doesn’t matter who you are, you’re going to end up in a few memory-making shots.
The fact that this person was able to get a shot that was just her without anyone else in it is a little incredible, especially since she’s facing down one of the event’s biggest statues. She’s dusty, she’s sweaty, and she seems to be taking a little bit of a break before getting back to the mosh pit, or whatever she feels like doing.
A Dip in the Pool
Burning Man takes place in a desert, that much you know. While not all deserts are hot (Antarctica is a desert, believe it or not), this one certainly is. With plenty of sun, gross dust, sweat, and other people, sometimes the thing you need the most is to take a nice dip in some fresh water.
This guy knows what's up. You might even enjoy Burning Man for all the normal stuff, but it's hard not to think that cleansing yourself in a tub full of ice water would feel REALLY good after all that excitement. Plus, you can get all the dirt and dust off you.
A Few Pods of Pink
If you have never been to Burning Man, you might think that the whole thing is just a dusty town. And, honestly, that's a pretty good guess. It does take place on a dry lakebed, after all. Still, the people who show up every year do their best to add a little bit of color to the proceedings.
For instance, adding a whole lot of pink couches. This place was called Pink Heart Camp at Burning Man 2022, and we're not sure if there was anything else to it besides the couches, but they definitely got the pink part down.
Time to Ride the Dragon
Why, it's none other than Falcor, from “The Neverending Story!” Nice to see you, bud. This finely-dressed gal is standing next to a vehicle that looks like it could transport a fair number of people, even if it can't take to the sky like in the movie.
Sure, the vehicle is an interesting subject, but we're a little more surprised that the lady decided to get dressed up. It looks like she hasn't been touched by the harsh winds and stinging sand. We bet that kind of look didn't last too long, but she was able to get a pic in before it happened.
Art in Miniature
If you are ever at Black Rock City during this huge event, there is plenty of art that you can take pics of, whether or not you're in the pictures. These two gals have decided that this intricate metal art needs a version that is much smaller and with a lot more color.
Whether you're just taking a look at all the work that went into the motionless pieces of metal that dot the landscape or you want to get your shot taken with them, there are lots of options. Even when we are broken, we can be whole together.
