Khun Surapon,

Very nice re-enactment scenes. Forgive my ignorance, but I presume there is no projectile, just something that makes a lot of noise and emits a plume of smoke.

Thank you for posting these photos.

 

[TexPhoto]

Great Photos. It would be cool to do some post processing to make them look like period photographs.

 

[2n10]

Wonderful series Surapon.

CanadianInvestor you are correct no projectile just black powder.

 

[YuengLinger]

To be frank, these are poorly exposed and composed. Way off your A-game, Sup.

Snapshots any tourist in a hurry might snap.

Sa Wass Dee Krub, Dear Friend Khun CanadianInvestor.
As our friend 2n10 said = Just Gun Powder and the Soft Block in front of Gun Powder, Just for the Big Bang and Heavy smoke.
Have a good Sunday Night.

Thanks you, Sir, Dear friend Mr. TexPhoto.
Yes, I will try to do post processing as you say, to look like 150 year old black and white Photos ( Sepia Color). BUT I am low level of Photoshop skill, Yes, I will Try.
Good Nigh, Sir.

Ha, Ha, Ha---Thousand Thanks Dear Friend Mr. YuengLinge.
Yes, the Canon shooting target = 150 feet-175 Feet from Me( They not allow to get closer that that), And This First time in my life to shoot the live action of real loud Bang with 600 mm Lens ----Just Snap shots as fast as I can----Ha, Ha, Ha, You are right on the target, May be after 2-3 more time of CANNON shooting( 10 feet from the Action, Because I can use my Press badge, to smell the gun powder), My Photos might be Masterpiece, BUT MY EARS WILL BE DAMAGE FOREVER----Ha, Ha, Ha.
Yes, I promise you, Next 2 times of Shooting, It will be better than the Tourist's Snap Shot Pictures---You are right, I am the Tourist too.
Have a great Monday in some where in this world, Sir.

Ha! I took one look at the second pic and I knew exactly where this was shot from. These are pics from when I was there in Fall 2013. I have some other pics of my kids on this cannon, but I guess those didn't make it to my flickr page. At the time, I thought it was pretty amusing the cannon appeared to be aimed at a house across the field, but you can't really tell from this point of view.

Dear Local Friend Mr. yorgasor.
Yes, For my Second Picture, This Canon Aim to the home about 1500-2000 feet across the open field---Ha, Ha, Ha., I ask the Museum Staff, He told me that, That Home is own by the retired General , who move from New York ( Yankee), and this Cannon belong to the southern army in Civil war, and One day in the future, If that Dame Yankee General do not change to be a Good Yankee/ Good Neighbor of that area, Some one might put the real projectile in that Cannon----Ha, Ha, Ha.
Just Kidding , Sir.
Do you think, When We will have a 2 Feet Snow , for us to take the good Photos of the snow ?
Happy New year to your family and You too.

Oh, I can only dream of getting some real snow. That reminds me, I need to make sure I have some good glass slides so I can be prepared for another round of macro snowflake photo attempts. My shots last year didn't turn out as good as I had hoped. Although, I blame the lame ice flake formations:
