4th - The 11th Texas Cavalry Regiment

Huntsville, TX.

This is a cival war "reenacter" if you will. This man and his group of guys
who reenact the Civil War visited the Sam Houston history department. During the
"gun safety" part, he demonstrates what would happen if you fired the gun without
a live round. Just the amount of air that is expelled can do damage. His target
was a plastic water bottle and you can tell by the water droplets in the air that it
exploded. I gave it a sepia tone so it would look more "authentic."

I love the black and white version of this shot. Really authentic looking.

Yes! Not only the tones, but the log cabin, bridge, and trees in the background make this an altogether great capture. Good work!
