We saw many things, and among others we visited a Sami family.

AAAAAAAAWWWWWEE!!!!! What a cutie!!! So this whas the sami shots U were talking about...acctually Its a lot of thing wich is very similar with the indians...the joik and the "drumsongs" and sort of dreamcatchers..e.t.c...looking forward to view more :) Puss & Kram
What a sweet shot Gun, her little posture says "I am shy". I see the likeness with the American Indians in the cloth around her waist, beautiful!
I love what you've done here; poignant and precious. I see culture and sweet innocence. Perfect palette to showcase the somber little one. Excellent work.
A wonderful remembrance. Such a sweet shy little girl. I, too, wonder what she is doing today. Looks like she would be in her late 50's. It would be wonderful to know. You are gathering some wonderful shots for your project. I look forward to seeing it all.
wonderful and so good of you to share this little gem from your past .. heartwarming!!
You are so fortunate to have saved this- it's not just a photo of historical and social record, but of your own life too- very nice indeed!
fantastic! i love old photos.. somehow they hold so much in them. as in there werent any digital cameras with which you could just snap 1000 shots and then have your fun with them... it was somewhat different. 50 years is a long time.. wow! i know how they could look pretty bad after such a long time.. u did a good job at bringing it back to life :D super!! :) vlad/max
What a vivid memory this must be to you and this shy girl seems to represent the actual situation of natives ... clueless, helpless.
it has the feel of the heritage in the dress.. actually the focus is great.. on the tent :]
very nostalgic and effectful photo of native life and the dear cutie! ;o)
Thanks for sharing. She looks so shy. Her clothing is interesting. It looks like she has her boots on the wrong feet. Glad you kept this photo and shared it with us.
Wish I had photographs to look back upon as to when i was a child. So these i find such a treasure. Glad that you have them and thank you for sharing.
