I shoot at Freedom Park quite often... one of my favorite places; and have nice shots from all the seasons, depicting winter's white, spring's growth, summer's greenery, and fall's wonderful colors. *** (2" snowfall in Charlotte can be gone by the next day, so you have to be ready & act quickly!)Editing
