Maycomb County Photo Blog

                                    Observation              

This picture illustrates what Maycomb County might look like. In the photo that I have found, it tells me a lot about when it was taken. In the photo all the houses seem to be made out of wood. It seems like everyone there is pretty poor. I assume this because of the way they dress. All the streets or sidewalks are pretty much dirt, grass, and some gravel. Some more houses in the distance with some other power lines. 2 people are on a porch just looking in a camera. I think they might not have been expecting them to take a picture of them.

                                      Reflection         

     This is a lot like Maycomb in from the description that Scout gave us. In the book scout said it had pretty low population, same in this picture. Very few houses and people shown in this picture. It also looks like its in the same season as most of the book depicts. In the picture the trees have leaves on them and grass is still growing. In the book it tells the reader that grass is growing in the side walk.
Now this picture might have been taken to show off something. It may also show the life/neighborhood of a negro family. This picture was taken in the 1940 which explains why the photo is in black and white.

                                        Questions

     I have a couple questions about my picture. What was the purpose of that picture? Did they ask the people in the picture? Was it his/her's home? I have no answers for this picture.

                    Forgot how to put a picture on (whoops).
