Back at the Stampede. There was an area called the Indian Village, where indigenous peoples live during the event. They put on a performance and dance competition that went on for an hour and a half, set in a small grassy amphitheater. I moved around the lawn, taking, well, um, about a thousand shots. Tough light and viewpoint conditions, I swear.
As I started editing, I found that the group pictures I took contained remarkable portraits when I zoomed way in. There will be a second set of these tomorrow.
Note the mix of new and old in the last photo.

It is a very good series, Bob. The first is dramatic and the second is intimate and friendly.

ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful series Bob. I'm glad that native Americans remain proud of their heritage. There are so many valuable points to their culture.
ReplyDeleteOf course I noted your fun shots of the sunglasses and IPhone - mixing old and new, that's the reality of life.
