The Valley of the Shadow of Death[edit]

This is Roger Fenton's "Valley of the Shadow of Death" from the Crimean War and the Charge of the Light Brigade immortalized in Alfred, Lord Tennyson's poem. See this New York Times article for more about the photograph. Out of respect for editors who might object to any alteration to this famous image, I'm submitting two versions for consideration. The original is marked. My restoration addresses the scratches in the lower left corner, artifacts along the bottom and left sides, clears dirt and dust from the sky, and adjusts the levels. Appears in Roger Fenton and The Charge of the Light Brigade (poem)

Umm, there's a different version in the Fenton article, which is also in Siege of Sevastopol (1854-1855). The restored version here is also in the Charge of the Light Brigade article. I'm not sure that I don't like the uncropped original (with the border) best. --jjron (talk) 07:59, 31 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
