If you were a pirate, you know what would be the one thing that would really make you mad? Treasure chests with no handles. How in the world are you supposed to carry it?!

So I went camping in the desert a couple weeks ago

This was my fourth year at Burning Man, my senior year if you will. I went through the usual cycle of being highly motivated to prepare properly, and then completely screwing up and forgetting something I really wanted. This year, I would forget to bring my SLR’s battery charger and one of the batteries. I realized I’d forgotten it after I was about three hundred miles from home. The idea that someone in my camp would have a charger was comforting on the rest of the drive. It turned to sadness when nobody had a charger.

Nonetheless it was Burning Man, and I still had a pulse so it was impossible to have a bad time. I camped with Black Rock Yearbook, who are wonderful people. The handful of shots that I did get turned out to be something worth looking at. Can’t wait to go back next year, where this time I’ll be prepared.

The best of the bunch was a serendipitous shot of Neverwas Haul at sunset.


The Man was also a standout, this was one of my first shots upon arrival. The sun was making giant pink light beams over the mountains in the background as it was just about to rise.

Before I knew it, it was Saturday night and the man was getting asploded.

I walked around getting video snapshots and ran into Holding Flame. Incredible.
