Photo Analysis


     In this photo there's a lot of houses. With one big house in the middle. The big house could be a town hall or something The roads also seem to be dirt, not paved. Maybe the roads aren't paved because the town's too poor? There is a small amount of trees. So the town seems to be in the plains. There's also a horse drawn carriage, which seems to be the family's transportation. Speaking of the family, There's no husband. He could be the one taking the picture though. Which leads me to the next thing, the mom looks straight at the camera, and the sons look like they're striking a pose. So they could be wearing their best clothing because they know they're getting a photo taken. Or they're middle class.

     I think that this is very close to Maycomb. The houses are relatively close and there are dirt roads. It was also taken in the earlier dates. Since there are horse-drawn carriages. Also the people in the photo seem to be middle class. Since the clothes aren't that nice. Also in farmlands, there are little trees, in the picture, there only seems to be 3 tress. So not much. And not many anywhere else. So in a plains area, like Maycomb.
