Being merely a decendant of the Cherokee, and Crow tribes, I can only imagine the feeling of deceit that the Native Americans carried heavy in their hearts after discovering that they might soon become an endangered species, just like their buffalo. This was done with silver gel pen.

Poi Toa / - / In my December holiday to New Zealand this is one of the photos I took. / We went to the Waitangi Treaty grounds and saw a Maori performance including the Poi Toa, which is one (or two) ball(s) on a string which are twirled around, and bounced off their hands. The idea of this was originally to increase the dexterity of the person playing with the Poi Toa, and increase their effectiveness in war against another tribe. Nowadays however they are mainly used as performing tools or played with as a game. / See more information on the Poi Toa here – http://history-nz.org/poi.html / - / Post production details / RAW editing in Photoshop / Post production in Photoshop / Time to create ~120 mins. / - / Shooting details / Number of photos in shoot ~100 / - / Equipment / Canon EOS 40D / EF-S 18-55mm 1:3.5-5.6 II / — / Note, the time saved on the EXIF data on my New Zealand photos are set to Australian time (add 2 hours for the time I took the photo in New Zealand.) / Feel free to leave advanced critique, I value any constructive critique :) / Dale.

An angry response to the commons vote on the referendum for the EU treaty, which we were promised and are now not getting our chance to vote because it has “changed” slightly, it is also an angry response to Nick Clegg’s idiotic approach at this commons vote by ordering his party to remain seated till all votes were cast as part of a demonstration, thus hindering the chance of defeating the government, I do not believe that as part of a democracy we should be forced into a treaty we have not got the right to say “NO” to.
This was a statement on how the Indigenous tribes were fooled in their negotiations for their land and treaties.

This image is the dreamscape of broken promises. I was in an experimental mode . . . trying to create a unique type of still life which had some heavy metaphorical ramifications. This creative endeavor had many iterations of which this on among my favorites. Taken with an early Olympus TTL fixed lens .
This 5”x8” pen and ink sketch includes a small volcanic cone ‘hill’ (the darker cone right side of sketch) that has a bit of American Indian history that fascinates me. In the early 1870’s A one armed U.S. Army general met with Cochise, a famous Apache chief, in an area on the eastern side of the Dragoon Mountains known as ‘Council Rocks’. In this half mile wide ‘bowl, surrounded by tall balancing boulders, the general and Cochise made a treaty regarding a reservation for the Apaches. As the General and his small Army detachment left the meeting and headed back to there fort, Cochise had a large white flag erected on top of ‘Treaty Hill”. It could be seen for up to a hundred miles in most directions and notified his small bands of warriors about his success with the treaty… and to not attack the soldiers on their way home. My 5.5”X8.5” Canson sketch book uses Universal Recycled acid free paper with a very fine tooth.
The naked earth is warm with Spring, / And with green grass and bursting trees / Leans to the sun’s gaze glorying, / And quivers in the sunny breeze; And life is colour and warmth and light, / And a striving evermore for these; / And he is dead who will not fight; / And who dies fighting has increase. The fighting man shall from the sun / Take warmth, and life from the glowing earth; / Speed with the light-foot winds to run, / And with the trees to newer birth; / And find, when fighting shall be done, / Great rest, and fullness after dearth. Poem written Julian Grenfell, Into Battle, April, 1915 Julian Grenfell, the son of Lord Desborough, was born in 1888. Educated at Eton and Balliol College, Oxford, he joined the Royal Dragoons in 1910. During the next four years Grenfell served as a cavalry officer in India and South Africa. Grenfell was badly wounded when he was hit by shrapnel during action near Ypres. Julian Grenfell was taken to a hospital in Boulogne but died on 26th May 1915. / A few days later his poem, Into Battle, was published in The Times. It later became one of the most popular poems of the First World War. In memory of them all. Music – Barber – Agnus Dei Painting was inspired by Julian Grenfell Using acrylics, graphite and copper pigment / 102×42cm on textured paper. September, 2nd 2009

In the Fall of 1969 Native Americans reclaimed the island of Alcatraz under terms of the Treaty of Fort Laramie (1868). They remained on the island till June 11th the following year. This is considered a prominent movement for the Native Americans as it resulted in the U.S. government returning land to the Taos, Yakima, Navajo and Washoe tribes.
