    These are wonderful. Nice job with keeping the skin tones real and bringing out the color and motion.

    Thanks all. I may post a couple more. Since they are dancing and often spinning while moving over a large area it can be a challenge to get good shots. I am using a 18mm - 250mm zoom lens and most shots are in the high end of that so sharpness suffers some. To keep shutter speed up I set ISO to 200 then clean up any noise (not really to much) with Denoise 5 as a first step.

    I wish I could have taken pictures of the wonderful native artwork but I didn't want to intrude while some many people were around. Maybe next year.
