Civil War Ghosts

One of the vendors at the Shippensburg Corn Festival was Tim Johnson of Living Images. He specializes in Civil War battlefield photographs that have been double-exposed to show 'ghost' images. There really isn't a good way to describe what they look like, you have to just see it.


The above print is the one I liked the best. It is called "Time to Heal" and depicts a Union and a Confederate soldier coming together on the battlefield of Gettysburg where Pickett's Charge came to an end. These photos are amazing. Pretty soon this beauty will be hanging in my office.
