Description

There a lot of wars and rummors of wars. pirites and bad people around the world. I just hope all you know will come home safe and sound to you again. I was on the road driveing looking for a place to park for I was late in the battle reenactment on Manfield , Louisiana battle Some shots I shot thought the window with out looking but driveing. i do not know if this is one or not but it came out as a statement to me. The woman is a bystanter watching the battle. many of the bystanters was dress up in the 1860's clothes too. I thought of how many mothers of both sides wish they sons and husbants and fathers be home and not off to war. They praying and a hopeing to see them again in one piece and in a sound mind. Now days some doing the same if they sons go to work . it that bad out there in some places. thanks for looking and comments and votes on all my images.

the fence stops them from getting too close to the action. IIn war at that time there was many bystanders there to watch the battles and both sides did not attic them for they knew they was not in the battle. they had a moral reasons back then. look like the morals broke down today. oh these are the yankees canons here. men in blue

Don't fire til you see the whites of their eyes! Pretty good capture of the goings-on, Jock, considering you were driving at the same time. I attended a Civil War reenactment several years ago in nearby Huntington Beach and took photos on film.

A wondeful shot .. one hopes the daughters make it home safely as well. Today's wars take not just he sons to wars on foreign soils, but daughters as well.

At first I thought it was she who is shooting at the men. Great shot. This shot triggers a thought in me. In those days men would gather at Coliseum to watch and enjoy men killing each other. Time has not changed his nature. If there was no law, you could have watch the same sponsored by corporate giants.
