Autumn at Gettysburg

The Virginia State Memorial. This view was taken facing west at approximately 5:10 PM on Sunday, October 17, 2010.

Fall has come to Gettysburg National Military Park. Temperatures are dropping and leaves are changing color all over the battlefield. Today we’ll show you a few shots we took while out on West Confederate Avenue, but like we always say, we’re not professional photographers. In fact, we know our readers probably have all sorts of great photos of Gettysburg in the Fall. If you’d like to share them with us, and possibly see them posted on the site, please email them (along with your name and where you’re from) to [email protected]. Depending on the number of submissions we receive, we’ll compile them together for a later post.

Hmm … When viewing this section of Moore’s Battery with the David McMillan House in the background, it’s hard to tell that the seasons have changed. Let’s turn around… This view was taken facing north at approximately 5:10 PM on Sunday, October 17, 2010.

That’s more like it. This view was taken facing south at approximately 5:10 PM on Sunday, October 17, 2010.

The Fall season provides many clear skies and the moon is easier to spot during daylight. This view was facing southeast at approximately 5:10 PM on Sunday, October 17, 2010.

Of course, we weren’t the only ones out on this portion of the battlefield taking pictures. This view was taken facing northwest at approximately 5:10 PM on Sunday, October 17, 2010.
