Every year, I go to the Stampede, yet I always forget to go to the Indian Village. What kinds of events are held there? Or is it just another ploy by Stampede Admisistration to milk us of our pocket change?

I'm hoping to head down to the grounds on Thursday with my XSi. I should be posting back then with some shots.

Cool pictures. I gotta go down this year - if it ever stops raining that is!

I have to say I'm thoroughly enjoying my first Stampede, even with the rain and bad weather. I've never experienced anything like this before.

Excellent photos! I especially like the freaky breakdancing one and the photo of the girl with her grandpa.

Here's a few photos of the fireworks. I recently bought a DSLR, it's my first SLR in about 17 years so I'm a little rusty.











If you want to see a few more or seem them a little bigger here's a the link:
