Heard about an Indian Pow Wow and thought it would be interesting to see. Poor conditions for shooting. It was in the middle of the day and there wasn't a cloud in the sky. Many people from all over gathered for this weekend ceremony. This was my first exposure to native americans and I was impressed by their spirituality, concern for earth and the environment, and respect for everyone. I did learn that if you want to photograph a native american, it is appropriate to ask permission. There were times during the ceremony that photography was not permitted. I believe it had to do with the fact that the people dancing at the time were wearing eagle feathers, though I am not sure.
