Colorful Day In Calgary

in #colorchallenge7 years ago

I respect privacy and usually don't put the photos of people in my posts. Usually, I avoid to even take them.

The festivals or public performance is a different thing. People try to present their culture and customs to the world. When we attend The Calgary Stampede many years ago I got these. I understand the event like some kind of competition.

I'm not familiar enough with a history and politics to comment on this topic. I'm not even sure which words to use to describe the things. Especially because we all know who write the history books. My intent is just to present you some of the culture and some beautiful outfits.

You must admit they are very colorful and that is the name of today's challenge. I hope you like them and learn something new. That was my intent.

Have a great day, my friends.

The world is a funny place. Just step out of your own backyard, and you are in a different realm. But if you step out into another country, and the sudden culture shock could leave your head spinning.
The great thing about the thousands of peoples around the globe, all with their own lives, religion, history, geography and languages, is that all this combined has created such an amazing array of colorful cultures and unique traditions that will keep the lucky backpacker forever able to pick from the metaphysical box of chocolates and never get the same sample twice.
Thanks for your posts.

 Calgary also hosted the highly successful 1988 Winter Olympics, elected North America’s first Muslim mayor, and throws one of Canada’s biggest parties, the Calgary Stampede.

Lovely photos :)

Fantastic shots. I have always wanted to attend an authentic Pow Wow! I have heard they are an amazing cultural experience. In my grade 6 class many years ago we did a mock Pow Wow. The kids had to learn all about the culture and present a variety of different aspects. We enjoyed music, dance and legends. Such a fun unit to teach.

Calgary is Canada's largest city calculated by population. The population numbered 991,759 people.

And Calgary is a natural and winter sports venue. In 1988 Calgary held the Olympics.

Thank you @oldtimer for the post.

Wow. You really enlightened us with your knowledge. Wikipedia I guess.

Surely. I am interested in the culture of every region. so I look for information. with your post I know about Calgary.

wow thanks for that post. nice colourful photos. i just realized again, that you don´t hear much nowadays about their culture. really hope it won´t die.

Wow so phenomenal, I wish I could hear the drumming and singing to go along with these amazing shots.

I love going to Pow Wows and watching the dancing and listening to the songs. Great photos!

Yes, you are right. sometimes we are sharing the picture does not need to discuss about which there are experts respectively. but I am very interested to see portrait pictures like this. in addition to removing unique colors also provide a very natural portrait value. thanks

This is a very colorful festival. I think it was super fun and exciting. Typically, these colorful festivals always take place with powerful people's energy. It is very impressive. Excellent photos.

Hermosas fotografías, muchas veces sólo se necesita una imagen y pocas palabras, se nota su orgullo y fuerza tan sólo en sus miradas.
