of Charity from Cincinnati

Battle
before/after
Whether it’s color or
black-and-white, the
HDR process gives
Mark Six’s photos
a different look.
These two photos from
a re-enactment at Sacramento are a
good example. Mark
took some 800 photos
at Sacramento, finding
“there were more
(photo) opportunities
than I could imagine.”

Richmond belle
Southern Belles always lend color and beauty to
re-enactments. Such was the case at the Battle of
Richmond’s Aug. 24-25 Re-enactment Weekend.
