Description

This is the corner of two streets. The street from the left side of the picture continues down and to the right side of the picture. The other street is on the right side of the picture and is from the background to the foreground. There is a street light at the corner of these two streets. There are four houses visible which face the street on the right that comes from the background to the foreground. There are bushes that line the left street. The first house on the left is a two story home with an attic. It is a house with a wrap around porch with columns holding up the roof of the porch. The next house to the right is a lighter colored two-story house. This house is a square shape and has a small cut out for the porch where a person with a lighter colored, possibly white, shirt is sitting on the edge of the porch. This appears to be a young boy with darker pants and possibly long socks or knee-high boots. There are bushes in front of this house. The next house is very hidden by this previous house, but is at least a two-story home and is darker. The house next to this is a lighter colored house and is very hidden as well. These house are on a hill and there is a walkway and stairs that lead from the street to the front porch of all of these houses. There are also trees in front of these house, which obscure anything behind them.
