KwaZulu Dreams
KwaZulu is located in South Africa, the Zulu artisans there produce what's called an Isicholo hat, a ceremonial hat worn by Zulu women........it is pure geometrical form. From a side profile, its conical form accentuates by flaring out from the head, and as seen from the front, the hat forms a disc which emphasizes and surrounds the face.

Congratulations Johnathon. A very dramatic image almost with a 1910 - 1920,s silent movie feel.
Thanks Steve, it's very appreciated........may I also say that I've gotten a supreme satisfaction out of the spectacular shots that you, Stefan, and Jim Galli have started off this site with.......
