Return to 5th Street


I went back to Mebane's 5th Street about 2:30 this afternoon, with my Nikon. What a difference two days' time makes, and how different the light with the sun four hours earlier than evening. Neither the Dogwoods nor the Red Buds seemed so numerous today, especially the Red Buds, whose buds had already burst a week ago and so their blooms were nearer their end than the Dogwoods' were.
    Last week, the stately row of Red Buds near my Chapel Hill office cooled the eye and spirits with their darker-violet blooms. What will they say to me tomorrow?

The yard in the next block going north
Across the street
And more Dogwoods beyond

  1. Very nice. The Nikon is a good camera and the photographer uses it well.
