It's a nice pic Larry & Flo, but California is not part of Mesoamerica so I decided to remove it from the group pool. I hope you don't mind. Keep posting!

This is so beautiful; composition, colors and passion you can clearly feel.
What is it about being part of California that the previous poster didn't understand?

What else can I add...? That is simply a wonderful shot. Sharp where it needs to be, nice motion blur enhancing the area around the head. There is a nice sense of a snapping motion with the dancer. Thanks for sharing.

When I think back
On all the crap I learned in high school
Its a wonder
I can think at all
And though my lack of edu---cation
Hasnt hurt me none
I can read the writing on the wall

Kodachrome
They give us those nice bright colors
They give us the greens of summers
Makes you think all the worlds a sunny day, oh yeah
I got a nikon camera
I love to take a photograph
So mama dont take my kodachrome away

If you took all the girls I knew
When I was single
And brought them all together for one night
I know theyd never match
My sweet imagination
And everything looks worse in black and white

Kodachrome
They give us those nice bright colors
They give us the greens of summers
Makes you think all the worlds a sunny day, oh yeah
I got a nikon camera
I love to take a photograph
So mama dont take my kodachrome away
