I didn't see it either until sharp-eyed anonymous pointed it out.<BR/><BR/>#29 is one of my favorites because of the composition. The blue (heavenly) suitcase open, denotes preparation for a journey. (I don't think anyone's unpacking into that mess.) The well-worn "PEACE" t-shirt, hanging in a place of pride on the wall. The pot accessories in a lower position to the side provide a hint about what may have led to the current circumstances. <BR/><BR/>The first photo in <A HREF="http://picasaweb.google.com/mansfieldkimbro/Christmas2007#/" REL="nofollow">Christmas 2007</A> is equally fascinating. A charming swaddled Madonna and child scenario. As Madonna dips into some Kirkland salted nuts, all seems well. Yet...our eyes are drawn to the dollar taped to the wall over their heads, and their attention is focused on something to the left. Is it another person, a television, or - most unsettling - the purse at Madonna's feet - <A HREF="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mammon/" REL="nofollow">Mammon</A>?FonHomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01710955433948687225noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8548832815603141151.post-26486194566469151642008-11-08T07:44:00.000-08:002008-11-08T07:44:00.000-08:00Looks like some sort of boarding house...or a case...Looks like some sort of boarding house...or a case for eviction and immediate Protective Services involvement!
