For example a photo you say "Night lights on the playa" when it's one of the bigger most impressive pieces done by the Flaming Lotus Girls called "Soma". Just offering it constructively. Thanks for sharing the pix. Captions should offer more information than what you can see for yourself – and the captions are bland and leave out important information.

Your post about Burning Man is great as are your pictures. As one of the artists who devoted lots of time and energy and passion to creating work for the desert, I always love reading the wonderful, amazing experiences have out there with the world that's created. In looking through your pictures of the art, I noticed that your captions don't have the name or artist/group of the pieces. It would be wonderful if you could amend those captions so all the good folks who love Flavorpill can learn about the artists/groups who create the work out there. Hey!
