This is obviously a very special place, Jack, and the photo is truly one of a kind.  I love the texture of the walls.

Charming! The angled position of the fallen kick scooter is particularly advantageous to the comnposition.

'Toys' for both children and adults. Marvelously sharp this is and the colors are perfect. I like the composition too I do. A document of daily life, an archeological artifact :=}

This is another slice of daily life to me. The child drops the scooter and goes into the house, the vacuum and garbage are on alert ready for use. All very functional. It's a smaller version of a garage yet cleaner, no signs of autos. Great capture Jack.

You generally show an uncanny sense of space, in this case what strikes me as much as the individual elements almost randomly coming together your ability to convey the feel of the room. It's as if it's a totally empty room I'm seeing and the bikes and scooter and vacuum cleaner just popped in for a brief moment to say hello. You create a presence.

And they do not worry about theft!  How many kids?  My guess is two, an older little girl and a boy of around five.  The pink bicycle and the red scooter are the girl's.  The plastic red and yellow thing that makes a lot of noise on the sidewalk belongs to the boy.  The big bicycle is mama's.  There is apparently only one seat, which is in back. That is for the boy when momma goes shopping.  I would guess the girl is around eleven.  Note the trash bin and the red hula hoop around it.  There a red thing by the trash  bin, probably oil.  The toys by the red and yellow thing are the boy's.  Note the vacuum cleaner.  A fairly well-off family and quite house proud.  They either do not own a car or Dad uses it for work. This is a detached house, or am I wrong, Jack?  A very neat like study.  Cheers.
