I have several more Pow Wow images to post I just have not had time to work on any. We been bringing in about 4 tons of hay which is a lot of picking up and moving about. I am more than tired and the weather has been hot today was in the high 90's and I hope to land tomorrow.... to work on images.

The boys are happy to have a barn full of hay just for them!

My goal was to capture the movement and spirit of the festival. I prefer full frame with diagonal lines and/or properties within my images. These are a few of them. We were lucky enough to attend part of the rodeo as well.
