Burning Man in Pictures 2015 X: Build Day Two (Evening Edition)!

In our last post, we had just stopped construction for supper[1]. As we had much more to do, we went back to the Charnival grounds to build in the evening.

(We had also heard rumors of an impending windstorm the following day, so we also went out to batten down all of the hatches.)

We had also started to receive our first explorers, and our intrepid build crew was happy to bask in their adulation:

Here are some pictures to try to capture the calm before the storm. First, the calmness of the grounds, with the Man in the distance:

Here’s a side view of Mirror Blaze, complete with some wind bracing:

Here’s Riskee Ball, the backside of the Charnival entrance and barker station, and Fire Tetris (note the rather intense Fire Tetris wind bracing):

We were visited by an interesting arachnid-nose car:

Here’s our feisty build team for night two:

We then took a few minutes to explore some glowing unicorns we found before calling it a night:
