I took this picture at Burningman 2007 in Black Rock, Nevada. Burningman is a week long event that takes place annually in the Nevada desert. Burningman attracts thousands of artists, musicians, and fun loving thinkers.

Participants at Burningman are encouraged to be part of the art experience rather than simply spectators. These participants not only created artistic modes of transportation, they also entertained with improvisational theater. The "head" is a motorized vehicle and the "eyes" are bicycles.

I first saw the eyes "rolling" around the playa when all of a sudden the "head" spotted the "eyes" and raced to catch up with them.

In this photo the trio stopped long enough to pose for a few pictures. Mine is probably one of dozens.

I took this photo with my canon PowerShot A80 digital camera that is literally falling apart.
