In your other post I thought you did a really good job on the first pic. And this is great also. I like to fix photos but it is way easier on a computer with Paint Shop Pro than a phone.
Anyway, I wanted to ask if you got any good Civil War forums bookmarked. I had a fantastic one saved on my other phone which died and I can't remember thhe name.
Before Simon does it I will ask what was Lee like to photograph? You know he is going to take your post literally :p

Do you mean, how hard was the project? Not hard. As long as the photo is nice and crisp, the results will turn out good. I don't bookmark anything currently.

I use to hunt near a persimmon tree. I never saw a deer eat them but possum and racoon love um. I tried them once. I couldn't talk for an hour.

You ever eat persimmons?

I waited until after the frost to eat my first persimmon.. I don't know what was wrong with it, but it played hell with my taste buds. :laughing7:

It was weird. It tasted like my mouth was extremely dry, and the "taste" wouldn't go away for hours.

I just got a new relic today. It's a sweet large canister ball/grapeshot from Chancellorsville. The dealer is reputable...at least he should be. I got it from my dad. :laughing7:

I could have it as long as I could clean it up. Currently is is a large clump of rust, more reminiscent of an iron cow patty than a sphere, but I'll show y'all the clean up pics.
