On Friday we attended the Stanford Powwow at the Stanford University campus, California. Indigenous people of America gathered from all over the USA and Canada. Groups of many different tribes arranged in a big circle. The tribes drum and chant, one group after the other, while dancers in traditional outfit dance in the center of the circle. Elders judge the performances - a friendly competition. We could feel the energy on the field, a real uplifting experience! A woman is looking at the performances with watchful eyes. We learned that women are the driving force in many Indigenous American tribes. They identify and nurture upcoming leaders.

 

I processed a balanced and a realistic HDR photo from a RAW exposure, blended them, and carefully adjusted the color balance and curves. I welcome and appreciate constructive comments.

We went hiking in the hills behind Palo Alto in the Portola Valley, California. On the way to the Fern Loop Trail we passed by the Orchard Glen Picnic Area, which looks like a nice place to have a picnic in the forest.

 

I processed a balanced, a paintery, and a photographic HDR photo from three RAW exposures, blended them selectively, carefully adjusted the color balance and curves, and desaturated the image. I welcome and appreciate constructive comments.

If Madonna had "4 minutes" to save the world, I had 6 hours and 19 minutes!! This is how my Friday ended for me!! How about yours? If you're viewing this via your "favorites" with only 1 or 5 pictures at the time, like I usually do myself, please note you'll be missing a lot as there are 15 pictures in this series.
