To Enter:

I got a chance to see the details of the General N. B. Forrest up close. The close-up photos shows the stitching in his boots and the waves in his hair but they also included the tie-down straps that are supporting it. So this photo will have to do.

Yes it is! I truly enjoyed the fact that the cavalry engagements were right along the spectator crowd line at the Cedar Creek reenactment in 2023. It is so rare to be able to get close up images of the cavalry horses and they were magnificent.

I love it.

Some of the photos that CWT members take are mind blowing. Absolutely beautiful. I love to look, because I'm not talented or creative enough to ever take anything close to as nice as these. Well done.
