Have to admit that I, too, saw re-enactors on parade - which isn't at 
all uncommon here.  We have Texas Revolutionaries, various frontier 
types, War Between the States types, Medievalists, WWII groups...   

Didn't see the other lady until she was pointed out.

But as I've been taught over the years, if you have to show me the 
point to the picture, it doesn't work.  She's just lost behind the 
two suits, and every time I go back to the shot it takes a deliberate 
effort to find her.  

Great moment to see, but as a photograph it just doesn't get there.
