Manassas National Battlefield Park - Virginia

[Vijay Apte]

I live close to the Manassas Battlefield Park in Manassas, Virginia. I started visiting it this year after a couple years break to seek photographic opportunities. I have fallen for the charm of this old historic civil war battlefield. Here are some of the shots. Your comments and critique is well appreciated.

I love the second one - I don't think enough photographers are brave enough to point the lens into the sun. The shadows themselves are a strong subject within the picture - great job!

All of your shots are simply beautiful. My favorite is the fourth one, the lighting is just so pretty.

Tyler,

Thanks. I was apprehensive about taking that shot but could not resist when I saw the shadows cast by the tree.

That was the main reason I ran that day to the Battlefield Park. Thanks.
