A: you don't!
if you don't want your camera to get dusty, don't bring it :)
(prompted by a shot of the talented mr. nightshade's camera)
A better question: how do you protect your camera at Burning Man? Gear insurance.

Named: "Blossom".
This aircraft has had more owners than I've had hot dinners. It was delivered to Socony-Vacuum Oil of Canada as N2647 in Nov-50. It's still flying, as N39SM with PC Rental LLC based at Cordova, Alaska, USA. That makes it just over 70 years old! Updated Mar-21.
FAQ: Our Format
Folks are always asking, “Where is the actual magazine?” We get it. Most are looking for a flash book. They are looking to click and flip. Well, Slut Magazine has evolved into a news aggregator much like The Huffington Post. (In format, we are like The Second Life Herald was, if an SL example is needed). Real Life print magazines are dying or are dead. We do not see the need to imitate a defunct medium. Why produce an online periodical whose form mimics a paper magazine. Players of Second Life know their way around the web. They have encountered a website before.
Let’s define a few terms:

Flickr has suspended my account, so I cannot interact with people on here anymore until they lift the suspension. They claim that I add so many favorites that it is considered an abuse of resources. I am hoping to convince them to lift this suspension. All of my images have been knocked out of Explore and the Flickr search engine. I am unable to favorite or comment on anyone's photos. I am not the only one who has had this happen to them lately. They also accused me of using a script or automated process to fave other member's images, which isn't true, I don't even know how to use a script or even what one is! I personally fave every image that you see in my favorites stream.
A point I would like to make is, dispite whether you think excessive faving manually is right or wrong, it was never stated that there was a limit of the number of faves you can make or how many you can make per unit of time. Even in Flickr's FAQ it states "There is no limit on the number of favorites you can have." So, they are saying that I violated Flickr's Terms of Service and Community Guidelines, even though I never violated anything explicitly stated there. Hence, they are punishing me for something that they never even cited as an offence to Flickr's Terms of Service and Community Guidelines.
UPDATE I just got a message saying that the suspension on my account will be lifted!

A shot of Ashley on a train bridge in the evening. This is Ashley, I met her on Model Mayhem, her Model Mayhem number is 1216213.
About the Photo
*Camera: Canon EOS Digital Rebel XS *Lens: EF-S 18-55mm ƒ/3.5-5.6 IS *Shutter Speed: 2.5 Sec. *Aperture Value: ƒ/5.6 *ISO: 100 *Focal Length: 47mm (75.2mm Equivalent in 35mm Film)
I shot this on a tripod using mirror lockup, a polarizing filter, and a remote switch. I have been wanting to do a shot like this one for a while. It is supposed to make her look strong, like she will stop a train.
I cross lit the model from both sides to bring out detail. To the left of the camera I had a Canon Speedlite 430EX II at around 1/32 power at 24mm, pointed directly at her about 3.5 feet away. To the right of the camera I had a Vivitar flash at full power pointed directly at her from the same distance with a cloth diffusing it. The Speedlite was triggered by a Canon ST-E2 wireless Speedlite transmitter and the Vivitar flash was triggered optically.
I opened the RAW file in ACR and did some basic adjustments and tried to recover extra detail in the highlights and shadows using the fill light and recovery sliders. I increased the clarity to maximum and manipulated the tone curve. I altered the hue and saturation of each colour individually. I used the spot adjustment brush to bring out more detail by adding a few layers of clarity, especially on her clothes.
I opened the RAW file in CS4 and placed it over the original image without so many detail enhancements, matched the features, and reduced the opacity and changed the blend mode to luminosity so I had no weird colours like you would get in an HDR image. I then saved the image as a 16 bit TIFF and continued to edit it.
I then duplicated the layer, and changed the layer's blend mode to multiply and took a soft edged brush and created a layer mask and removed the layer around the model. I did this many different times throughout the editing to control which areas where brightest and darkest and to give a good graduation of tones between to two. I also did some dodging and burning to the model's clothes to give them a more contrasty look. I also used the spot healing brush to remove the grittiness that resulted from the detail enhancements.
I edited her face by taking the right eye, flipping it, and putting it over the left eye. I did some dodging and burning to bring them out and added a blue colour using the brush tool on a layer set to blend mode color. I also used the elipse tool to make the pupils round.
I had to do some dodging of the railway tracks to make then stand out more and I also increased their saturation. I added beams of light behind the model by rendering clouds and using radial blur on them from the upper center of the image to create the illusion that their might be a train coming up behind the model. I added a layer of noise and changed the layer's blend mode to screen to create a dust/ water frozen in the air look. I used both a curves and levels adjustment layer and the opacity of the noise layer to control its look and intensity. I also removed some of the noise by using a layer mask and a soft brush. At the end of the edit I saved as a 16 bit TIFF, converted to sRGB colourspace, and saved as a JPEG to upload to the internet.
“Early Lunar Base
One concept, by the U. S. Army Engineers for early lunar base construction consists of prefabricated modules which would be buried below the moon’s surface for heat insulation and protection against radiation and meteorites.
L-R: Air lock, air conditioning and power console, sleeping quarters and cooking area.”

From the original proposal:
“The lunar outpost is required to develop and protect potential United States interests on the moon; to develop techniques in moon-based surveillance of the earth and space, in communications relay, and in operations on the surface of the moon; to serve as a base for exploration of the moon, for further exploration into space and for military operations on the moon if required; and to support scientific investigations on the moon.”
Depending upon who gets their first, the U.S. might want to consider similar verbiage for a future mission statement, and dust off/update the content highlighted at the Army Historical Foundation website.
God Hates FAQs. I saw this comment on Tumblr earlier and it made me chuckle.
FAQ = Frequently Asked Questions.
I’ve been doing a lot of questioning since New Year (as many do).
Not many of the questions are good ones and often diving off the cliff into a sea of mindless illogic.
Do I have a Narcissistic Personality Disorder?
(From above) Why do I dislike myself?
How much do I care about the people around me?
Will I ever accept the colour of my skin or are the grooves of the implied and overt racism from my youth grained too deep?
Is self contemplation a neurotic obsession or a necessary path to growth?
Why did I eat sausages today when I’m (a.) on a diet and (b) still suffering a stomach upset?
All these questions and more are, perhaps, a waste of time.
And my progress as a rational whole human is agonisingly slow – too slow for a man with grey in his beard.
Should I shave my beard before I attend my friends birthday party tomorrow?

Frequently asked questions are listed questions and answers, all supposed to be commonly asked in some context, and pertaining to a particular topic. Since the acronym FAQ originated in textual media, its pronunciation varies; "fack," "fax," "facts," and "F.A.Q." are commonly heard. Depending on usage, the term may refer specifically to a single frequently asked question, or to an assembled list of many questions and their answers.
While the name may be recentthe FAQ format itself is quite old. For instance, Matthew Hopkins wrote The Discovery of Witches in 1647 in FAQ format. He introduces it as "Certaine Queries answered," ... Many old catechisms are in a question-and-answer (Q&A) format. Summa Theologica, written by Thomas Aquinas in the second half of the 13th century, is a series of common questions about Christianity to which he wrote his reply to each.
