Photograph Jeremy Wade Shockley/SU DRUM
The Southern Ute Drum offers extensive coverage of some of the prominent ceremonies in the area. The Powwow circuit will take us as far north as Denver, Colorado for the Denver March, and then south again for the Gathering of Nations Powwow in New Mexico. Regional Powwows include Hozoni Days and Ignacio’s own Tribal Fair. Keep an eye on the SOUTHERN UTE DRUM NEWSPAPER for more coverage in the weeks to come. This photograph of a young dancer in full regalia was taken recently at the Sweetheart Powwow here in Ignacio, Colorado.
Yeah, man!This is a great, great portrait! I would have to say I think it’s up there with your best Africa portraits!

Ben , Thank you so much! I do love portraits above almost all other aspects of photography, especially environmental portraits that happen as part of a story or an experience- such as this one! Cheers, Jeremy

At a glance, doesn’t this kid sort of look like Ben when he was that age? Maybe it’s just me?
