Description of Pictures: From the official CWPT announcement: The Civil War Preservation Trust (CWPT) released an investigative report on the status of the nation’s battlefields at a news conference on Thursday, February 24, 2005. The report, entitled "History Under Siege: America’s Endangered Civil War Battlefields", identified the ten most threatened Civil War sites in the country and what is being done to rescue them.
CWPT President James Lighthizer was joined at the news conference by DreamWorks recording artist and historic preservationist Darryl Worley, nominated top new male vocalist in 2002 by the Academy of Country Music. The debut single, “Awful, Beautiful Life,” from Worley’s self-titled album recently held the #1 spot for two weeks on Billboard’s Hot Country Singles and Tracks chart.
Also participating in the news conference was Dr. Libby O’Connell, Chief Historian of The History Channel. Dr. O’Connell developed and oversees “Save Our History,” The History Channel’s campaign to promote historic preservation.
For the record, the ten most endangered sites this year are:
Bermuda Hundred, VA
Franklin, TN
Kennesaw Mountain, GA
Knoxville, TN
Manassas, VA
Mansfield, LA
Morris Island, SC
Raymond, MS
Spotsylvania County, VA
Wilson's Creek, MO
I've only visited seven of the sites on the list this time.

2005 photos: Equipment this year: I used four cameras -- two Fujifilm S7000 cameras (which were plagued by dust inside the lens), a new Fujifilm S5200 (nice but not great and I hated the proprietary xD memory chips), and a Canon PowerShot S1 IS (returned because it felt flimsy to me). I gave my Epson camera to my catsitter. Both of the S7000s were in for repairs over Christmas.
Trips this year: Florida (for Lotusphere), a driving trip down south (seeing sites in North Carolina, South Carolina, Florida, and Georgia), Williamsburg, and Chicago.
Number of photos taken this year: 147,000.
