There is simply too much to say about my 5 days at Elizabeth Castle on the Isle of Jersey for their Treasure Island event. The 200 plus photographs don't even begin to show how amazing the site is, or to express what it feels like to reenact in a place where everything around you is over 200 years old. I am endlessly greatful to the site, the castle guardian and the Jersey Heritage Trust for hosting such a wonderful event at such an amazing location; to all the various UK Pirate Brotherhood, Sheppey Pirates, C.H.E.S and Bonaventure members who shared their event, tents & beer with me and especially to my dear friend Ed for inviting me in the first place. It was a once in a lifetime experience that I will be honored to talk about for years to come.
Home Away from Home: Elizabeth Castle at high tide
Without further ado, a small collection of photographs from around the site. Unfortunately there are very few photos of the other reenactors or myself, just one of the drawbacks to having the public around at every turn; no chance to have a photoshoot!
Stepping back in time
Hello! I love your posts! This is fantastic. I am slightly obsessed with the 18th century myself. I love this, I am a huge fan and I'll be back!
