75 years of performing Sunset Ceremonies at Fort Henry

Thanks to a friend (thanks James), I was able to get in to shoot at the special 75th anniversary performance Sunset Ceremony at Fort Henry on Saturday.

It was a packed event that showcased the updates to the ceremony as well as honouring the the museums past.

I like shooting with other photojs because it helps keep me on my toes.  It gives me the chance see how someone else shoots, someone else to talk shop with and it gives that little competitive side of me a push.
