Well, i confess, my American history isn't that great and i never paid much notice to the title and the relevance of the battle. Even without my for-knowledge though, this photograph was able to portray the sense of a 'happening' to me and was incredibly successful in that. Thats something i aspire to in my photography so thanks very much Mary for the inspiration.

A landscape without horizon... It's different. I like the very particular mood, the warm colors...
Slightly oversharpened, still a 7

Beautiful textures in this Autumn cornfield and how reassuring to know that something has matured and grown out of that long ago September battlefield. Now it is once again the Season of Change and Dying, perhaps in a distant echo of the past. This place is now serene, anticipating a different future.
The stalks will stand true. Are there 3,654 of them which remember?
