I've been waiting a looooong time to shoot one of these. Granted, this was a local reenactment group putting on some shows for 8th graders, and not a "true" reenactment, but I'll take it! This was a blast to shoot today, I got about 60 keepers. Still playing around w/ various vintage treatments in Lightroom, not sure what I'll end up doing with all of these yet. They'll all get something like this sepia tone or B&W, I'm not settled on anything for certain.
Most of these were shot @ f/2.8 to induce as much background blur as possible to remove the fairgrounds in the background. I tried to be cautious an not get telephone poles and such in my shots, and managed to avoid the parking lot and passing traffic in the majority of them.
After some Lightroom adjustments, this went into Photoshop for additional tweaks and sharpening.
