Yorktown, Virginia, USA. A mortar cannon on the battlefield. A mortar fires a high-arching, low velocity shell a short distance. This one would have lobbed a large ball with the hopes of eliminating enemy cannons and troops.

An interesting and antiquated means of defense, Thad. Can you just imagine a large ball falling from the sky in your direction?

Nature in all her glory is my uplift on life and so is my love of photography. sandi ♪ ♫
Aiming must have not been easy with this one but enough to scare the enemy.

Smooth seas do not make skilful sailors.
This would be like throwing a screen pass, as compared to going for a Hail Mary, Thad.
Great shot.

People are like cameras--sometimes they lose focus.
Will probably cause a big 'bang' Thad. A shot with this mortar will probably not only damage the enemy lines but perhaps the own soldiers as well because of hearing damage.

Did the Hatfields and McCoys use something like this? Very interesting capture and very well done, too, Thad.

Wow, looks 3D on my screen in full. Really love the textures and detail of the Mortar, really beat it would be really loud firing that big of a cannon/ball. When viewed in full you sure can tell all the use this one got by looking at the detail, etchings and more of the inside of the barrel. Kudos my friend, brilliant
