Front Royal, VA
As part of the 250th anniversary of our Declaration of Independence, a living history event was held yesterday. I did not stay for the evening events which included a ride by “Paul Revere,” but I took plenty of photos during the afternoon. These are pictures that I took using my iPhone’s “Portrait” mode. You need to be fairly close to the subject to use that mode, but people wearing costumes are usually willing to pose.
I dialed in the solid background because the real background was distracting and clearly not 18th century.
I plan to share regular snapshots of the event later.





These are beautiful portraits. Good choice for the background. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteI am sure it was enjoyable. I wonder how those early folks would view the country they birthed now?
ReplyDelete...many enjoy reenacting history.

ReplyDeleteI would have enjoyed seeing these interesting costumes. You did well taking the background out.
