About Me
- Name: Ookpik
- Location: Michigan, United States
I began my interest in vernacular photography by a chance acquisition of over 10,000 negatives dating from the late 1920's through the early 1970's. Luckily, I knew what I had was something more than "someone's old pictures." This cache of old images became the impetus for me to create two Photoblogs: Ookpik’s Negativity and Mystery Ships Of The Great Lakes. Ookpik’s Negativity contains photos that I would like to know more about while Mystery Ships Of The Great Lakes features photos of ships that I am trying to identify.

Looks like the monument in the middle of the Civil War park on top of Lookout Mountain in Chattanooga, TN. If I'm correct, this monument is dedicated to the Union troops that gave their lives - several hundred, into the thousands, in a battle that lasted just a few days. Seems like they call this park Point Lookout.
Thanks! I assumed it was some type battlefield monument but had no idea where it was located.
