Day 31: A Battle Well Done

I had planned on being out of town today so I wrote off getting to the Tippecanoe Battleground to see the re-enactment this weekend. They are celebrating the 200th anniversary of the major battle that not only helped start the war of 1812, but also gave William Henry Harrison a needed boost that he rode all the way to the White House. I was out still trying to get my fall barn picture when I decided to see if I could find some good colors at the battleground. Of course I pulled up as everyone was leaving, but I did manage to get a couple of good pictures. I liked this one of two men talking after the day was over. For some reason the bench, tree, and the uniforms seemed like a good shot. I guess it could have been composed a bit better, but I was reacting to something that happened behind me so time was not on my side. This yet again was not the picture that I set out to take, but I like the happy accident.
