In this different type of then and now, I am holding Timothy O'Sullivan's iconic image of Bigelow's artillery horses lying dead in the Trostle fam yard at Gettysburg while standing as close as possible to his original camera position. The famous shell hole in the barn shows up clearly in both photos. Notice the v-shaped rock behind the cannon in my modern image can also be seen in the 1863 photo...a "witness rock".
