Antietam: Captured Moments from the Battlefield
On the anniversary of the battle of Antietam/Sharpsburg (September 17, 1862), here are some photos from the Maryland fighting ground. Take a moment to see the story of battle, memory, peace, and preservation.









Those are absolutely wonderful evocative images. Thank you, Chris. I will be going to Antietam next weekend and your timely images whetted my appetite.
Beautiful photos of such a sacred place.
Very nice work, Chris. Those are some haunting & ethereal photos.
Amazing, artistic, and awe inspiring photography. Thank you
You are a great photographer.
I was there last year for the 17th and the 18th. On the 18th Brad was my tour guide and we took 4 hours to truck around and then to explain the Battle in the corner field has my great-grandfather and his brother had seen it on that gruesome day 160 years ago. Yet, I complete my own book on the “Prayers, Petitions and Praises of the Battlefield at Antitiem”,I reflect on the events I read through the diary of the day’s events.
