Description
I took this at a Sealed Knot Civil War re-enactment a while ago now. It was a very interesting day out, even though it was very noisy when battle did commence!

Great work !!!!!!!!!!!!!! Fantastic portrait !!!!!! Roby :O)
This is my first visit to your gallery. Very impressive.
A portrait that tells a story...just look at that face. This is what you do so well.
A very sharp and colorful capture of one mean-looking dude! Excellent POV! Are you sure you didn't enter a time tunnel to be transported back hundreds of years, and then photograph the real thing? By the way, their battle equipment weighed a ton.
So much expressive portait, excellent framing and clors, congrats!

The timing was excellent, I love the expression on his face.
So fantastique capture!
Absolutely great soldier portrait!
he looks ready for the battle here. very good shot of this man
This is gorgeous!!!!!*****.
Nice photo...
First class portrait of how serious reenactors take their hobby. He's a proper 17th century pikeman to be sure. Royalist or roundhead? Sounds like Garlor is a Stuart partisan.
