this is food for the soul, worth the $. these are NOT posed pics! they are shot during pow wow and in motion/dance... swear you can almost hear the jingle of fancy dancers and such....
awesome pics are clear and large, calendar spaces are middle size, not large. each monthly lay out/month also has next to dates spaces regalia pics are featured down left side with before/after month. quality paper and ink- good job on design and lay out/printing set up/color.

True essences of non-posed dancers in full regalia at Pow Wow's dancing, NOT hokey slick commercial shooting of "Dances with Wolves." Pictures show true feelings and spirituality in physical expressions of Native American dancers. This is the real deal captured in a instant. Each dancers large photo (one per month) set on black back ground, below on calendar number face is numbered for that month (January), then to right on beige band going vertical is shown: the # grid of month(s) before (December) and after (February) shown in small font, below this a small different cropped picture of a piece of regalia is shown, under that is listed the featured month dancer's name, type of dance entry and tribe: Dolly Heemsah
Women's Northern Traditional Short Fringe Dancer
Yakima/Dine'
Main month daily # blocks are slim:H>1 1/3 L>1 2/3,on a softly faded background of a teepee & blue sky(different each month). Listed international holiday's font is small and slim.
Over all the graphic design/layout is extremely well done, 2 font types used, 2 font colors, picture cropping and placement is very well planned working in excellent style. This is not another drug store calendar. Someone put much time/effort into this creation.
