30-day Photo Meme: Theme 20 - History 24/30

[meriones]

I've been debating back and forth for days about posting this for the history prompt (considering the fact there's remains of a WWII gunpowder plant just a few miles away) but finally my desire to share won out. I'm kind of a nerd when it comes to wild west history, in particular Native American history and culture. In our house there's this awesome display case of objects my great grandfather collected in the fields outside of Fort Randall in South Dakota. This happens to be where Sitting Bull and his band camped for a couple of years. Growing up it was always one of my favorite things at my Grandparent's house, and I love that it now resides in my own home. :)


Take a photo according to theme and post in your journal. The rules are lax and simple.
- You can use any type of camera you want. From an SLR to a cell phone. Tech isn't important.
- The quantity of photos you take for each theme is up to you. Post one or a hundred. Be kind with LJ cuts and remember that if you're going for artistic, a hundred pics might dilute the effect.
- You don't have to post every day. Life happens. By the end of the meme you should have 30 posts though, with at least 30 photos that you took yourself.
- You can rearrange the themes to suit your schedule. The order is unimportant.
- Interpretation of the themes is completely up to you. There are no photo cops defining them.
