Images from Selma 2012

These are some images that we took while in Selma for the Battle of Selma 2012.

First up is a Union Officer. My 10 year old son wanted to snap some pictures and this was one of the first ones he took. I think it turned out pretty nice.


I like the way he captured the flag in the picture. The man himself looks as though he was plucked right out of the 1860s.


Next up we have a Confederate Dead. This was taken during the skirmish on the Saturday. I thought it captured the mood of battle.


I think the picture gives the look of of a man who had met his end and who is laying in the hot sun.


This next photo was shot while a lone Confederate walked into the woods. Almost like the ghost of the Confederate heading into eternity.......going back home.




This next picture was taken in Live Oak Cemetery. We came across a lone Confederate AVC Soldier sitting on a brick wall inside the cemetery. This is another picture that my son shot. I think he is getting the hang of it.


Another neat picture we were able to get while inside the Live Oak Cemetery during ceremony was that of some Cavalry Soldiers on horseback.



These two fellows below were part of the Navy Presentation. My son liked their uniforms and went over and asked them to pose for the camera.


Hope you enjoyed the pictures. Please feel free to leave comments.
