Since nobody seems to be following this semi-weekly thread anymore, this is a TEST: This week's Throwback Thursday goes all the way back to - LAST MONTH! This was taken by @1863surgeon using his cell phone camera while I was busy photographing details of the statuary on the Virginia State Memorial on Seminary Ridge at Gettysburg. I hadn't bothered to post it earlier because it was taken at such a distance and required a LOT of cropping to make a presentable image. (Like taking out the entire big blue tour BUS that was on the left side opposite those cannon behind me.) Fortunately his cell phone camera takes such good photos this could be done with surprisingly little loss of detail or resolution - wish my camera did as well!
Anyone having old (or NEW!) Civil War-related photos or mementos is encouraged to post them here too!
