Portraits

I've always been leary about taking portrait shots.  It is very hard to capture the nice features of a person's face in a photo.  But all the wonderful costumes at the Civil War days added a marvelous touch to all my portrait photographs.   It was a  great learning experience for me and gave me the edge to try it out more often.  I love using the sepia and black and white color tones with portraits.  It gives them a classy look.
