John Bernaski of Oxford New Jersey , will demonstrate Civil War era wet plate photography. Bernaski is now traveling with fellow Civil War re-enactors to give others a glimpse of history and to share what he has learned about wet plate photography. He said history is addicting to him and that the more he gets involved, the more he wants to learn ... and to teach others.
