Guy is Selling pow Wow pics!!! PLEASE READ!!!!

Greetings Everyone,
It has come to our attention that James Wilson, a commercial photographer, has taken photos of Thundering Spirit Pow Wow and has them online for sale.  We are in NO WAY condoning this action or have anything to do with it.  We have tried to contact the man through his website by 2 different e-mail addresses and they both bounced back.  One thing we can do publicly, is add comments to the photographs and album.  If you feel as strongly as we do about the fact that this man has no right to sell photos of dancers without their permission.  We are asking that you also leave comments about these pictures. 
Also, we are sending this out to warn other pow wow promoters that this man is around and visiting local pow wows.  **picture of James Wilson is attached
He has several photo albums of many other pow wows.  the web site is:

The page of Native American Pow Wows and events is:

and the Thundering Spirit Photo Album is:
http://www.416-1100.com/gallery/7486899_FBncm
 
As you will see if you visit this site and photo album, We have left a comment about how inappropriate what he has done is.  We have also asked him to remove the pictures of the Eagle Staff as these are Most Inappropriate. 
Thank you for your support.
