Beautiful landscape photos.
Good luck with your reenactment event.
Has anyone considered doing an Ancient
"After the Battle Magazine" photos
of a Roman sculpture of said battle in a specific
location as a carved relief on a piece of pottery or tomb
with the actual color photo of the battle sight as it
exists now.
Is After The Battle magazine still being published?
If you are doing a promotion for your unit you can
have the power tower, Adobe Photoshopped out and there
are shops that can do the same for video footage
in the USA I imagine in London also or else where in
the UK.
Wish I could drive my future family to such sights someday...

I think I had heard that the battlefield might be at Elgin, near Inverness. Ever been there?

That's really sad to see Archeolink abandoned like that. I took my family there twice and really enjoyed it both times.

Agreed....its too bad that they couldn't hold any roman reenactment events there....they definitely have the space and the scenery for it.
