Hi all,
As you may know, the past week or two I asked for some suggestions regarding photo opportunities in and around the Charlotte area (I was going to visit there for business). Well, the trip was last week and I stayed over the weekend and shot the photographs below.
Although I didn’t have time to visit all suggested locations, I want to thank everyone that responded. By the way, I also went to The Light Factory (but didn’t take my camera in). There were some very stunning photographs exhibited there.
Click on each photo below to view them:
