On the Way: Gettysburg Autumn

Filed under: Civil War Photographs, Digital, History, Stock Photography — James Crotty @ 3:43 pm

Fall in Gettysburg. My last three visits were in the spring. Now I had the opportunity to photograph the battlefield in all of its autumn glory. I was there for three days, last week, and I returned with over 350 images to share, print, sell and display.

Also, during this visit I took my bike and rode the entire battlefield with my camera and couple of lenses in my backpack. That was quite an experience.

I’m still working on editing and preparing the images for public display. However, as a bit of a preview I’m presenting my Gettysburg in panorama photograph. This image is a digital composite of six separate frames. The scene is from the top of Cemetery Hill looking toward the fields where Ewell’s Confederates made their desperate attack into the Union artillery that had dug-in on the evening of July 1st, 1863.
