Default The Civil War
I took this picture at a Civil War reenactment last Sunday in Boscobel Wisconsin.
I followed the "Antiquing" tutorial that was posted a while back.
I wanted to achieve an old time picture from a long ago event.

You did very well in making it look like an old picture. Great job.

Excellent job capturing a Parrot Gun. My son has been a Civil War reenactor since he was 14 or so, he's 22 now and a history major. Great job!
