Sure, there are a few too many UNC Tar Heel photos in it, but the Charlotte Observer has (on its website) a wonderful "photographic journey" that celebrates the life and vision of Grandfather Mountain's Hugh Morton, who passed away recently. (Morton, a lifelong Tar Heel fan, redeemed himself with a great shot of the late Jim Valvano.)
Among the great Morton snapshots included in the slideshow are his famous one of the Charlotte skyline (taken from atop Grandfather, some 80 miles away), the Linville viaduct and the Grandfather mountain bears. My personal favorite is toward the end, of a deer, admiring its reflection.
View the slideshow here, and let us know what's your favorite photo.
(Thanks to Tom Snow for passing this along.)
