It was a perfect day in Newnan, Georgia. Yes, it is indeed the first day of Spring, but that is an arbitrary word assigned to the day during which a specific astronomical event occurs. But that in itself, did not make the day perfect. No, it was a perfectly crisp, cool and clear day following rainstorms that cleansed the air of particulates and pollution! The sun shone gloriously, and late in the afternoon, I turned off the computer, left the office, and headed for downtown Newnan.
I am, after all, a photography buff. When you love photography, you learn to sense when the light is good. Light is the foundation of everything photographic, and when the air is clean and pristine, the day cool, and before the trees bear their leaves, the light is perfect for outdoor subjects.
And downtown Newnan is a fantastic place to take photos. We still have a real courthouse square, surrounded by quaint storefronts with independent shops and restaurants. We are the City of Homes, and there are many authentic Victorian homes, and even some Antebellum mansions grace our village.
It could be a movie set,as the fast food restaurants and chain stores are relegated to an area miles from the square. They are there if you need them, but they do not intrude on the time capsule that is Newnan. It's a trip back in time, and a photographers dream!
