Yes #8. I can almost identify the players. General Grant with the cigar and General Custer with the little feather in his cap. The framing between the horse and dark silhouette on the right is excellent, and the three riflemen in the distance add dimension. It is an excellent composition, excellent photograph, and a reference to those times. (It could have been from the battlefield, but I don't think Grant & Custer got along.) Regards, Bob S.
