Excellent and love the history as well Thank you Dayna

Like the dersaturated look to this works well with these old buildings :)

love your text! and the subversive meaning!

WOW This would be such a gorgeous wall hanging!! Outstanding!!

I will have to review the whole series because this means a lot of "souvenirs" to me (I lived in Tucson in 1981...) Thanks for this interesting story, Paul. Great dedi for a "personnage" ! :~)

To read this makes me so angry yet again I'm not surprised! That's what we, human beings do, destroying everything we touch!

super Photo!

great serie and words !

Very nicely done work, excellent!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Exponentially excellent!! ;)

thank you for posting this wonderful and very interesting serie. thank you also for the informations. great dedication for pimbotin. * bravo * #:O)

almost back in the hands of nature!!

Wow what a story..and it's sadly unfortunately true. The gold in the decorations of that mission could have helped secure the populations of Indians, but instead it helped almost diminish them. How shameful. The building stands testament to the sheer bleakness of how wealth can bring sorrow. Wonderful illustration.

I like your gallery! The composition of this photograph is splendid!!*))

Humanity still hasn't come far, we still treat them badly, they were once a proud people, were has it all gone. Nice composition..POV along with the detail of who lived in homes such as this:):)

Jolie dedicace pour "pimbotin" !!!

Hi Paul, it seems your supplying me with another series of my own by giving me all this information. It seems we walk similar paths these last several days. Congradulations my friend. Art with a voice has significant power, like that of Roosevelt. Carry a big stick, but speak softly. Take care and a have a wonderful week.

I've got to say that I'm touched... For the Dedi first and for the fact that you chose this text! You wanted to have my opinion... Well, honestly, believe me or not, you couldn't have written words closer to what I think about this "invasion". I've been visiting your country, we came in Arizona where you live (if I remember well) and saw what you describe here. We've seen a lot of different places around the world where native people (rarely the white invaders) have to suffer misery. Seing the same things in one of the richest countries in the world has been really chocking and my wife and I will never forget that day when we stopped in a little village just before arriving in Monument Valley... I won't give the details! We shouldn't deny all the efforts your government tries to do today to help these communities but all this seems so derisory when we consider how destructive the white man behaviour has been for such a long time. What kind of help can we give to a complete population which has been spoiled, which had to forget their own culture and to run away their land in order to survive? Money? Casinos? Las vegas? What a joke...! You know what is the worse: look at their eyes, all those people surviving in those micro-reserves areas and selling dreams-catcher to the tourists, yes they are free and independant, yes they don't owe anything more to US government, but they are all depressive! How couldn't they be depressive? They are nothing else, today, than just an attraction for tourists visiting western parks. And all this has been done in the name of God... Allelujah... Thanks again, dear, you couldn't have done better!

Lovely image and nice dedication. :)

What a brilliant photography together with this very intersting text! I love this fascinating color setting which is not fully colored but also not only B/W! I really love it! Bravo!!! V

Totally agreeing with Philippe here and beautiful capture as well !! :o)

That is what I ment and pimbotin said it wonderful, the last days you showed us the wonderful church which is full of gold and silver and here the other side, people who have nothing!!! I don't know in what kind of world we live sometime I'm really depressed about all this unjustice here. It is not only in your country minorities are still have no lobby!! Excellent done, Paul!!!

Beautiful capture and wonderful dedication. Love your crop as well. Unfortunatly i dont have time to read, what i suppose is very fascinating, your presentation....im at stinky work and should probably get back to it...sigh. Have a great day Paul. #:O)

A very emotional image and story. If those walls could only talk, what stories would they tell?

Very interesting history and image. Thanks for sharing.
