ReplyDeleteThis powwow series is SO striking, B! The workmanship and detail on the regalia is beautiful. And I could listen to drums forever. They're such a soul-ripping instrument. Lucky you for being there to enjoy the sights and sounds.

ReplyDeleteGreat to see the Native-American Powwow regalia.
ReplyDeleteA most interesting and colorful series BS - photos and commentary. Their costumes are certainly beautiful but I would think it might be hard to dance wearing such outfits!
