Very nicely done! I had no idea that Brady was such a "business man" when it came to coordinating the photos of important events of the time. I am glad you picked this topic so that we can all be better informed about the time, the events, the photos and interesting happening on your family's land.

In your research, did you ever find any information about how much Brady would have been paid for a photo like this one? Nowadays, the paparazzi earn large sums of money for photos and I am wondering if being a war photographer paid well back then.

Thanks again for the terrific piece. I agree that it should be preserved!
