Shadows of Antietam

A shadow falls across one of the memorials erected in honor of fallen soldiers at Antietam battlefield.

I am moving from the more historical and landscaped shots of the day we visited Antietam to some of the details so you may see some color in the next few days! Believe it or not this has not been processed in black and white- it's just how high the contrast was from the positioning of the sun.

Thank you very much everyone! This was taken around 2 in the afternoon so that sun was not at its apex, but it was close enough to cast this strong shadow.
