Quiet days at Gettysburg

[Ethan S.]

I made an overnight trip to Gettysburg on Wednesday for photography. Unfortunately it was drizzly most of the day, so I wasn't able to take great pictures. It cleared up on Thursday though, so I got some okay shots then. Mostly I just piddled around in Museums and antique shops, going broke in the process, lol!

Enjoy!

A Napoleon from Battery F/K 3rd U.S. Artillery standing Guard over Zeiglers Grove.







That's it for now, unless you want to see some straight up shots of cannons. I have an obsession for Artillery.



I plan on going back whenever the leaves start changing for good. Then I might be able to make it to Little Round Top without the NPS being a pain in the a-

Nice pictures taken in the overcast conditions. Particularly like the clear shots of the artillery pieces which all look to be in remarkably good order.

You have at least four winning shots in this lineup above Ethan.

The NPS don't have ghosts with bayonets, do they? That would be my worry!

I know you are being modest but those are some great photos!
Thanks for taking the time to share them. And I know what you mean about going broke in those antique shops.

Some very nice photos. "The Cloud's of War Gather" Might be a good theme for your grouping.
