Burning Man Revived

By Jim Poulton

For those of you who saw our post on this year’s Burning Man Festival in the Black Rock desert of Nevada, here is a beautiful time-lapse video. It shows the festival rising in an empty basin of sand to a city of 50,000. And when the Burning Man and the Temple of Transition are finally consumed by flame, the city then fades away again – back to the desolate desert expanse.

Here are some more photos - to whet your appetite for next year.
