Wow Bill, you were lucky to be in the right place at the right time! Gorgeous black & white image!

Great old-time feeling in this, Bill. Very nicely captured!

I believe at the time you had to cover/uncover lens! I happened to be walking by when an "official" reenactment photographer set this up. I said, Whoa, can I sneak a shot?

Bill, I did not know that at that time they had shutter speeds of 1/640 available. People really had to stand still. :-) Great catch!

Bill, this has an Infared feel for me. One would be pressed to believe this excellent photo was taken in modern time. Very historic looking - and a terrific entry. Love the tents in the background.
