I do do events very often, but couldn't resist trying to get a few here. This was my favorite (so far!)

The main action is very central in the image, and the rifle/musket tips appear very close to the edge/cropped. I would have liked to have seen more room on the left with the firer more to the right; however I see that the far RH chap would have been cropped, yet his weapon would still be showing. Maybe zooming out a little wider where permissible would have got everything in?
I like the image, great timing and the smoke is atmospheric too.


Tons of enthusiasm, loads of kit, limited skill...

Yes, I was bummed that I had to cut off the guns on the left to get the guy on the right in. Nothing I could do about it as I couldn't move from where I was at. I do have some wider shots, though, but this one just captured everything the best, IMO. Thanks so much for the feedback! :)
