The Native American festival proved challenging to shoot on a number of levels . . . I location during the Pow Wow had me shooting almost directly into the sun. Also, the nature of the crowd placement was not conducive to the simple backgrounds I like to put in my shots - we all sat in a giant circle, so any shot I could get, I had fellow onlookers in the image. So I went in tight and shot wide open at f/2.8. Used the Nikon 70-200 for every shot during the day - I love that lens!

I'll post a link to the entire gallery tomorrow . . .
