Many people look at my photos and go:
The photo on the left here is one of the very few of mine where the camera actually made the difference. This is from a sequence of twelve frames, taken about 1/20s apart (I should make an animated .GIF of the fireball). I made some 1280x1024 crops of this frame, if you would like to use it as a desktop background or something.

Oooh! You must have a really good camera.And then I have to give my lecture about how it's not the camera, but the photographer that's responsible for the picture; And that a good photographer can take really good looking photos with anything.

So anyway, what did I do at Burning Man? What didn't I do? Quite a lot actually…
I did get a lot of deep introspection done. My head is still processing everything.
- I didn't take pictures of anything silhouetted by the full-moon.
- I didn't climb anything.
- I didn't attend Paul Oakenfold.
- I didn't see Crude Awakenings.
- I didn't ride any art cars.
- I didn't make it to Spike's.
- I didn't go to any parties.
- I didn't get drunk.
- I didn't get set on fire.
