Man Posing at Devil's Den, Gettysburg, Pa.


A curious souvenir photo taken at Devil's Den, a rock formation located on the Gettysburg Battlefield in Adams County, Pennsylvania.
A man, hat in hand, stands in the middle in front of one of the enormous granite boulders, while another man stands on top of the boulder at right. A small group of people are visible on the other side of the rock at lower right. In front of the rock is a tripod with a cloth cover, presumably hiding a camera.
Could the group be assembling for a photo by a commercial photographer (who would be using the camera on the tripod) while the man in front poses for a picture taken with someone else's camera? It's possible that the man on top of the boulder is simply another tourist who happened to wander into the photo (the boulders are accessible via the hill behind them, and visitors can still walk on top of the rocks today).
For similar photos, see my album of Souvenir Photos from the Gettysburg Battlefield.
