Lady in Red at Burning Man

Right! If anyone ever in the history of the human race deserved the title of ‘Lady in Red’, it would have to be this woman at the annual Burning Man festival. A picture might be worth a thousand words, but I don’t know where to begin about this photo. She’s wearing red, her hair is red, her tights have red stripes, a red heart, and she has a red umbrella hat on! She’s carrying red stuff in the basket of her red-trimmed bicycle, and she’s waving out to us with a red-gloved hand. And what’s with those wood sculpture trees in the backbround? Bizarre! Beautiful.

This is a beautiful shot. There’s the overall mood of the image created with that gorgeous blue cast, and the blown out backgrounds, just giving a hint of street and trees. Then there is focus of the images, the dark red baloons that seem to float towards the viewer with the girl’s face only slightly revealed behind them, with an open smile. Some images are beautiful because they are immortal scenes, and some like this are beautiful because they capture a fleeting moment that can never return.
