Army Navy Circle Pictures @ Vicksburg, MS

I drove by the Vicksburg bridges yesterday afternoon to see if a towboat was passing by but saw nothing.  Took some pictures of the bridges with "OLD GLORY" flying in the breeze.   

O say can you see, by the dawn's early light,
What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming,
Whose broad stripes and bright stars through the perilous fight,
O'er the ramparts we watched, were so gallantly streaming?
And the rockets' red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there;
O say does that star-spangled banner yet wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?

My daughter took a similar picture a few months ago through the back hook of a cannon and thought I would give it a try.

 The front of the cannon.

You can see the hook on the backside of the cannon while the sun was setting.
