Burning Man

Burning Man is a music and art festival held in the black rock desert of nevada near Gerlach. This giant rave holds about 80k festival goers who camp for a week out in a hostile dry desert environment where they bring in and take out what they need to live on and leave no trace. In a week an entire city is built which becomes the third largest in the state. Burning Man Org owns the copyright to all images taken at this festival - thus I can not sell any but all are free to download if you use it for selling or commerce you will be contacted by burning man press as its forbidden to make sales of the pictures.
