Turned Away

Description

At the Moundville Archaeological Park there is a museum dedicated to the Native American Indians and every year a festival is held where they show how they make things for clothing, pottery, jewelry, and more. The walls of the inside of the museum is like one big mural of a Native American village.
I took some pictures, converted some to black and white, added textures, composed, cropped. Let the look decide the title.

Will enter in DDR.

Wonderful capture and great choice of effects, Frank. A haunting image.
That festival must be something to see - and see - and see! Your series of photos/scenes from that day is outstanding. Well done, my friend.
