Cannon Firing at Stone's River Battlefield on July 19, 2008

They had a weekend of cannon firings on July 19th and 20th at the Stone's River Battlefield in Murfreesboro Tennessee. I was there and took the following pictures that I am posting here. Very interesting presentation and a very noisy cannon firings.

All of the following pictures were taken in or around the Murfreesboro Tennessee area, either right in the city or just outside of the city limits. My goal is to have them exhibited in one of the galleries around town or the public Arts Center. Thus far the Arts Center has either not gotten any of my emails or have just chosen to ignore my request for information on how to get them exhibited at the Arts Center. I do know that they do exhibit photographs because there is an exhibit of photography being shown there now through August at that Arts Center. I have also tried to phone them but to no avail either.

I truly think that these photographs show Murfreesboro well and are in fact good art that would make Murfreesboro proud. I am not a native but in the short time I have lived here I have grown fond of this town. Part of the reason may be the town we moved from in West Tennessee was so backwards that it had not yet reached the 19 th century much less the 21st century.

If anyone connected to the Arts Center or any other gallery in town sees my work here and would like to have it exhibited in their gallery, email me at the email address listed on the front page of my blog, thank you.
