Gettysburg National Military Park
I first visited Gettysburg at around the age of 4, and remember little other than cannon everywhere. I visited again a couple of years ago, on what turned out to be a cold, blustery weekend in October. Certainly nothing like those summer days 150 years ago. Nonetheless, there was a feeling of solemnity, walking the fields, gazing at the monuments - a stark grandeur. Deeply moving to remember the events of July 1863.
But, rather than listening to my words, please enjoy a brief visit to Gettysburg through the camera's lens...
