An American Civil War Encampment! Bloxham Steam and Country Fair, Oxfordshire

Not a great photo, but a great surprise to find this at the Bloxham Steam Fair.
Lots of individual tents set up as they would be at the time and people of all ages dressed for the part. I'd just arrived and felt unprepared for this as it was quite near the entrance but rather out on its own, which made the setting rather better (no shortage of burger vans elsewhere) but probably didn't help with foot-fall as I was the only person wandering around.
I felt rather self-conscious pointing a camera at people. I think somewhere in my head it was the real thing and it was just plain rude to take photographs (Doh!)
Anyway, I hope these enthusiasts had a good couple of days and I feel guilty for not engaging with them, their time and their effort. Next time I will.
