I like this picture. Wow this has been a super good series for you and I sure have enjoyed it. Love the smoke from all the fires. What is that girl with the hoody and the running shoes on doing in your picture? Just noticed her. :D ... hugs, Marion

@Marion: Hee, hee ... if I'd seen her, I would have tightened my focus!
She was wandering through MY scene! :D
Lorraine from Gatineau, Canada
Isn't that something, my eyes totally went to the lady in sneakers she highlighted the rest...wonderful compo, as always Judy :) oh and also LOVED the earring on the guy the other photo, I love these touches of now within a re-enactment.
PS Did you ever see the movie Ben Hur with Charlton Heston ...in one of the race scenes about to start,you see a little red sports car...LOL how naughty lol

@Lorraine: Very observant you are! As I wrote to Marion, if I'd seen that gal I could have tightened my shot, but as you say, it adds a bit of the "now" to it.
Yes, I saw Ben Hur many 'moons' ago, but can't say I ever saw the "little red sports car." Funny!

I love these type of re-enactments, I have a few to post myself, sometimes it is difficult to get a decent shot without the public, I can see you have tried, nice photo

@Peter Miller: Thank you, Peter - sometimes we just can't avoid the "now" in these shots. *smile*

Ok, I didn't notice the hoody girl until somebody commented. Then it took me a few seconds to spot her. So much for my powers of observation; this is still a really cool image Judy.

I like all of the objects in this one. It really gives you an idea of what they had been doing.

There's one intruder, on the right, in jeans....otherwise it would be a perfect replica of a Union camp....how many years ago????

@Japanalia: Yes, others picked out the girl on the right too, Gabriela, and as I wrote them, if I'd seen her when composing the shot, I would have tightened it up. <grin>
Had it been real, it would have been about 144 years ago!
