Yes, here are 50,000 beautiful people on a single photo! :)

There is also a similar IKONOS satellite photo, taken the same day, and also available in high resolution.

"Yes, guys, here are 10,000 beautiful top-less women on a single photo! :)"

exactly why I less and less interested in going to BM in Nevada....

It's not what it's about guys....

loupiote (Old Skool)  Pro User  says:

yes, i know, pashasha, it's sad that some guy go there just to see top-less women. i don't understand that problem that american people have with the human body, i.e. making it illegal to show it.

pashasha  Pro User  says:

yes. sad indeed. but i don't know what's sadder. it being "illegal", or some guys going to BM for that reason. both ideas depress me a bit...

by the way, there will be a burning man in africa this year. if anyone is interested, here's the link: www.afrikaburns.com/

it'll be BM old skool....and in africa...it doesn't get any better than that...

i'm sure this photo is used on hundreds of websites without my permission, and most people don't even give credit when then use a photo lifted from the web...

This picture is great. It really begins to explain it. After many many years of wanting to go, this is our year. In all of those years of wanting to go I never realized how big, how many people actually attend until I saw this picture. Thanks.
