Description
This area is near the sunken road, now known as Bloody Lane as the moon light peeks through the clouds. The long exposure time and a slight breeze are what made the streaks in the clouds. Each year, on the first Saturday in December, more than 1,000 volunteers place and light 23,110 luminaries over a large portion of the battlefield � one for each casualty of the battle at Antietam (near Sharpsburg, Maryland) on September 17, 1862. This was the single bloodiest day of the Civil War.
