Catching their motion in low light was challenging but I am quite happy with the results.

Your photos are just stunning! Especially I love the last one where the motion and cosutume are flowing like a stream. So mysterious!
I am amazed with their unique culture! I hope to visit to see their gathering one day.
Best wishes,

Wonderful!! Colorful and great. I like that boy no 204 very much.
Hope you have a happy weekend Carolyn:-)
Such colorful and bright costumes--very beautiful. I can't even imagine how much work goes into the making of one. What fun to watch the dancing too. Mickie ;)
Great photos, Carolyn - amazing artistry displayed here. The last one is very intriguing, especially with the dark figure in the background.
Beautiful. Brings back memories.

How colorful.
Happy Blue Monday to you, Carolyn.
I have always enjoyed the indian dancer with their feather and bells and the drums. Enchanting.
Both my Great Grandmothers were full blooded indian. Loved your shots. Blessings, Debbie
Look like a fun even to attend. Those trees are absolutely gorgeous.
I have always wanted to attend one of these, but at least you photos are the next best thing, Carolyn! Absolutely terrific! The colors and costumes are fantastic! Thanks for sharing! Hope you have a great week!

Wow! Dramatic! Love these lovely lively captures.
Beautiful and colorful! Enjoy the week!
Wonderful celebration -- and your photos are great -=- I can almost hear the drums and bells.
I so wish I could have been there ! Perhaps a little more colourful than 150 years ago but no less spectacular.
Thank you for taking us along.
Great captures, Carolyn. Very colorful and you can feel the energy and motion.
So cool, we had the same theme!
Dazzling photos! Great shots!

Looks like a fun time, the costumes and colors are beautiful. Thanks for sharing. Have a great week!
I love how you captured the motion!!
wow, I love the colors!
I love your Indian pictures. Those costumes are great. The older ones are expensive now as they were made with some lost arts.
Rebecca has some for her part of the country (Pa.) too. Is it something national that I missed?
Happy MidWeek Blues,

Wonderful captures Carolyn!
These images of a younger generation really speak to me and my Native American Heritage.
Love the last shot in motion!
The native Indians have such a colorful heritage and it's great to see the youth involved so it is not lost.
you have captured the movement of these wonderful dancers beautifully!
Wow, fantastic costumes! Love your images :)
