The Ship and the Tower

I love it when two (or more) pieces of art come together randomly at Burning Man. It makes for such epic scenes.

Fun with Filters

Thinking back, I probably used NiK Tools for this image from Burning Man. I had a lot of fun with those but drifted away from the software. Maybe it’s time to dip back in and see how it has evolved…

Inside the Trap
Daily Photo – Inside the Trap
I’ve shared images from this place before, but only the outside, I think. It was a whole church like structure that some crazy art people managed to build in the desert, and it was set up like a mouse trap, balanced on a stick, tilted on one end like it could come slamming down at any time. Here’s what the inside looked like. Such a cool ceiling installation.

And Then They Were Gone
Daily Photo – And Then They Were Gone
So many moments at Burning Man are fleeting, just like this. I was lining up my shot through the dust with the silhouette of the cool art and then, out of nowhere, there was the rider and their bike. Before I knew it, they were gone, disappeared into the cloud never to be seen again.

You wait 10 years for one to come along and then two arrive one after the other…

Something you don’t see often
Daily Photo – Something you don’t see often
For a while I was a Nikon guy, then of course I made that wise decision to move early to the Sony mirrorless cameras… oh, the hate I got for that! I’ve since dabbled with Hasselblad and Fuji but what I had completely forgotten is that I once took a Pentax to Burning Man. It may even have been the first one I attended. It did not bad! Here’s an example of a very rare Trey Ratcliff Pentax shot…

IRL Battle Bots

Wouldn’t this make a really cool version of Battle Bots? (Or Robot Wars depending on where you are from.) My money is on the orb… it might not take down the other bot, but it looks resilient.

Sunrise Balloon Fun
Daily Photo – Sunrise Balloon Fun
I happened upon this scene at Burning Man in 2018 at sunrise… or maybe it was sunset. I’m terrible at updating my cameras clock from country to country! Anyway, it was such an interesting performance to watch. I’m always in awe of people who can make moving in these sorts of scenarios so graceful. Takes a wild amount of muscle control I’d imagine.
