Photo, probably taken on the afternoon of Sept. 18 (the day after the battle), shows a man with binoculars on the hill in front of McClellan's headquarters looking towards Antietam Creek. The smoke is from campfires, and the inactive artillery unit is thought to be General Andrew A. Humphreys' Fifth Corps division. (Source: Antietam, by William Frassanito, p. 70-73.
