In the distance, the most amazing thing...

It was gorgeous from the outside, ...

And the inside was full of beautiful
detail and creation ( comments)
Looking down a stairwell

The main courtyard and stage

Pan across the middle

One room had a playa museum,
full of useful "information" ( comments)
The Temple of Brad Pitt,
where everyone can be Brad Pitt ( comments)
We met the artist who made this.
Just one of those things. ( comments)
The temple
( comments)
And one of the times we walked in
I had to suddenly turn and walk out so that I wouldn't start laughing loudly in this serene place, because... ( comments)
..this is one of the funniest things
I have seen, because I am a bad person. ( comments)
And of course,
they burned Folly. ( comments)
Folly burns
( comments)
And eventually the tornadoes come
( comments)
The tornadoes spinning off Folly

The Shrine of Sympathetic Resonance,
a beautiful structure made from pianos... ( comments)
...burns the same night.
( comments)
..Over 10,000 musical strings inside
( comments)
I get into Head Maze,
which is a giant 3 story head... ( comments)
..with exquisite rooms inside.
There's a huge line every night, be we notice that there's a legit back entrance that nobody's paying attention to except a handful of people. Another line score! ( comments)
..then down below in the library,
you can climb the shelves to get up or down a level. [Video, 3.4M] ( comments)
This was not the best example
of the crafting of the rooms, but it was not easy to get good photos ( comments)
Looking out the breach
on the side of the head down a spiral staircase. ( comments)
A big "construction site"
was setup for the sake of amusement. ( comments)
One of my favorite signs
ever at Burning Man was a super official one with this text. ( comments)
PDA goes on a roving dance party

Charlie's "Self Acceptance Fairy"
was a brilliant thing she did in Center Camp - finding people and asking them what they wanted for themselves, and then granting them self acceptance! I was Smeegor, her hunchbacked assistant. This was one of the happy customers. ( comments)
Out on playa
with my beautiful pregnant wife. ( comments)
In front of a shiny thing
( comments)
I take over the sunset
( comments)
Charlie does it better.
( comments)
And so does baby Ultimus
( comments)
Jesus returns!
And blesses many campers [photo kai hayashi] ( comments)

The exodus out to the temple
(and we run into our camp, so you hear the camp cheer) [Video, 5.6M] ( comments)
The burn begins
[Video, 1.7M] ( comments)
It starts low..
( comments)
..and overtakes the temple.
( comments)
..till all ablaze
( comments)
..fuel burning
( comments)
The structure weakens,
and then I manage to time it just right and.. ( comments)
The temple collapses.
With a big "WHOOMP" that we can feel in the ground. [Video, 2.5M] ( comments)
At the temple burn
( comments)
Walking to the fire
( comments)
An Ogre at the fire
( comments)
Charlie's pregnancy parade.
She walks around the temple burn pregnant and gets so much love for bringing life to the temple. ( comments)
Charlie does a happy
pregnancy dance afterwards ( comments)
