About Me



I edited my profile with Thomas€™ Myspace Editor V3.6 !

My Mom recently visited Papua New Guinea where she attended their annual fire festival, which is a dance contest of sorts. This was her first time using a proffessional SLR camera and she came home with hundreds of incredible images of these beautiful and proud people. Papua New Guinea is the least exposed to western culture of any other country in the world. A fifth of the worlds languages are spoken here as the dialect changes from tribe to tribe. My Mom is in the picture with the winning group. I was blown away by these images, and I wanted to share. Get Your Own! | View Slideshow
