Former enemies.
The famous entrance to Hougoumont Farm.
Practicing their drills.
Square formation!
Just a picture to show you how big the reenactment field was, and how many people were going to be there watching. Every seat was filled.
French lancers being all threatening.
And we are off!
British riflemen fire the first shots.
But they have to fall back to French pressure.
The French attack Hougoumont.
The French advance! One of my favorite photos of the reenactments.
Day 2 of the reenactments-
The Old Guard are marching.
But some just want to relax.
The cavalry are getting into position.
And so are the cannons.
Napoleon, or the guy playing as him, would ride around periodically to the cheer of the crowd.
So much smoke would be emitted from the cannons!
If you look really closely to the left of this cavalry engagement, you can see an Imperial Eagle.
More fighting.
More smoke!
Another Orgah did his own version of some of my pictures to make them look older:
