[Cavalry Charger]

Can I just say what an awesome group of photographers we have here on the site?!

You guys are amazing, and thanks to all the folks who keep these marvellous threads alive by sharing their 'shots'.

Seriously.

Loving the pictures .. especially the detail of the cob web one .. that can't be easy to get and shows the detail of an eye to take all of these shots! Have enjoyed looking through them! Thanks

I was away yesterday attending my favorite monthly flea market so haven't gotten to play until now:

Irish Brigade Monument, Antietam NBP, Maryland

U. S. Belt Plate (Most of my real close-ups are for things like this!)

Buff leather NCO's Belt with buckle

Exhibit in Fort Ward Museum, Alexandria, virginia

Relief model of Fort Stevens, Washington, D. C.

Business end of 15" Rodman, Fort Foote, Maryland

Great closeups here. As an aside, if this was on a reenactor's limber chest, it's not ATF compliant, as we found out.

This was on a piece at Massass.

Let's see how many folks like to take close-ups. I always seem to find a couple when I am out.

I enjoy close-up images.

However, be careful to avoid potential wasp's nests when photographing cannon barrels during
Spring/Summer in the South.

I am eager to go back again. The last time I was under difficult time constraints and was unable to see very much and take photos. I hope that will change this year. One of my ancestors was wounded during Picketts Charge, but made it home only to die from the wound.
