A few days before McClellan's artillery started its bombardment, the Confederates withdrew and moved closer to Richmond. The Confederate artillery at Gloucester Point retreated from the fort on May 4th, 1862, as Union forces closed in. Exposure: 1/80 sec at ƒ / 8.0, ISO 100, 0 EV. Lens: 24.0-70.0 mm f/2.8.
