Burning Man revellers, including architect Bjarke Ingels, have captured the installations, pavilions and stages at this year's event, including elevated stepping stones and a huge arm made of scrap metal.
The photos posted to Instagram document the temporary structures populating the Nevada desert for this year's event, taking place from 25 August to 2 September.
The designs are intended to respond to the theme, Metamorphoses, which aims to reflect the "transformative" experience of the event that sees a temporary metropolis, known as Black Rock City, constructed each year.
Here are the best that have appeared on Instagram.

Greeting this year's attendees is Geordie van Der Bosch's Temple of Direction. Featuring four gates facing the festival's entry points, the wooden pavilion takes influence from Japanese torii gates, often found at the entrances of shrines.
Der Bosch's Temple is set to be burned with the namesake Man and other structures at the end of the event.
