    I stopped by Manassas Battlefield

    on my way home from Richmond, Va tonight.

    From the battlefield I caught the tail end of what was a gorgeous sunset. Hope you all like.

    Shot with the Coolpix 885.

    Awesome

    Great shots!!!

    Personally I really like #1 & 2. They give me the eerie feeling of a battle that is to begin or has been recently fought.

    Good work.

    Wow!

    Thanks folks! I was just shootin around with these, I didn't have much hope for them! Thanks to all of you for responding!

    I have been itching for some time on the battlefields up here in Northern Virginia to do some more shooting. These canon were alongside the road, easy to access and with that sunset happening I thought, what a shame! I'll get some more Civil War era stuff out one of these days. I also would like to pay a Reenator to do some real gritty/era stuff. We'll see.

    Oh, and Nat - it was strictly business

    Thanks all!
