I liked this photograph even though she didn't look to thrilled about being there. Many of these photographs appear this way. I am glad there was a record of the native Americans in this country and their way of life for this and future generations. I think that Native Americans had to be the smartest folks with their practicality and design. They never hemmed garments, but would fringe the article to fit. They were artist in their own right and in every way, with their beadwork and attention to detail. They also managed to incorporate functionality into their handiwork. I was surprised to see their short haircuts in this and other of this photographers pictures. I thought they always kept their hair long.
