Shoshone-Paiute Pow Wow



On the 4th of July this year I wanted to break from tradition. I was not looking for the parade, barbecues and fireworks. I wanted to see something different. So I went north of Elko to Duck Valley for the Shoshone-Paiute Pow Wow in Owyhee, Nevada.
It was an afternoon and early evening of full color traditional Native American ceremonial dress traditional dance and music. I particularly enjoyed the "One Drum Song Contest"
These are some of my favorite shots from the Pow Wow.

What Goes Up...


Inevitably comes down.
Sometimes gracefully, other times... not so much!

Jumping Over the Sun


I posted a variation of this yesterday but something about the original did not sit right with me.
I looked at the original for a few minutes trying to figure out why I liked the shot but at the same time did not really like it.
Then it hit me. The crop was wrong.
Here is the re-post.
