Contemplative Native American Dancer waiting to enter the ring at the “wacipi”.
Beautiful Aztec dancer at a Native American Powwow. She glowed with such an inner beauty and danced like a Goddess. It was hard to take your eyes off of her!

This weekend (Aug. 29 thru Sept. 1, 2008) marks both the official end of summer AND the celebration of the 62nd Powwow of the Shinnecock / (pronounced Shin-E-Cock) Indian Nation. Located at Southampton, Long Island , NY reservation, it’s drummers, singers, and dancers come from across the USA & beyond to gather , reminisce, sing, eat, camp together and sell/buy Indian made goods. It is a deeply felt spiritual time, for this is when I return to the land of one set of my ancestors to stroll the land, greet old friends, smell the smoke, photograph, eat fry bread, and hear the drummers drum and singers sing. It is a time for remembrance. / ~~ This image was FEATURED in Spirit of the Native Indian-October 2008 / ~ It has been viewed in excess of 450 times. Thank you EVER so much.
This handsome Native American gentleman had such wise and warm eyes….taken at a wacipi (powwow) on Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota. This is an “as is” image, no enhancements, no manipulations. 35mm film, Fuji Astia. Taken with my trusty Nikon F3 camera.
New York City ’s oldest and largest powwow is The Thunderbird Powow at the Queens Farms Museum. I’ve attended a few times and one of the times, I was lucky enough to obtain ‘front row seats’. I had just finished taking a few shots of the prior dancers so I put my Olympus OM-G 35mm camera down to take a drink of water since the Aztec native dancers were being announced. I was so intrigued by the dance that I had ‘forgotten’ (!) all about my camera. Next thing you know this native dancer stops in front of me and thankfully the ‘photographer bell’ rang in my head. I grabbed that camera so quickly and snapped away. However since he moved around rapidly, I didn’t know whether or not I had captured him (remember it was a 35mm camera!) so I was bit bummed out. I thought okay next time if he comes around I’ll definitely be prepared but he never did of course. Imagine my surprise when I saw this picture after it was developed..
Anthony Parker is a professional actor and champion powwow dancer; he has been dancing in the powwow circuit since he was a child. Anthony was born in Omaha but currently resides in Albuquerque, New Mexico. I took this photograph in September of 2007 on a private ranch approximately 10 miles south of Santa Fe during a workshop. Canon XTi 1/160 sec @ f/11 ISO 400. 115mm (28-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS Canon lens)
