Golden Ludlow

A morning in Ludlow in old furniture shops, junk shops, narrow streets.  A sort of summer ending, with the taking-down of the Ludlow Summer Show, the town's art event; a large modern room in a building 800 years old, a room in transition, half dismantled art exhibition, half returning computer terminals and work tables.  A flood of light into this modern annex, especially the hallway; shadows and warm sunlight on the carpet, an ending of the college's summer even in mid-August, a return of the holiday-stillness of such places, an anticipation of the autumn's students.
