 This is my friend Beth. We have known each other since High School. This year she opened a new chapter in her life, left Iowa and moved out here to Washington to start new. She is sitting in front of her home, it's maybe 6 feet wide and 10 feet long. It has a bed, a range top, cold water and a wood burning stove. Not much, but enough to get by until better things come.

Beth is a very talented Photographer too, and I've been trying to get her to join the site. You can see some of her photo's here //www.flickr.com/photos/crzymtlgrl/

Wow, 12 2's... Would of been nice if those 12 people left comments as to why they voted so low...

My Affluence shot ate 8 two votes. Maybe your friend kept this from scoring higher? I guess in hindsight she is well groomed, healthy skin, clean clothes, etc. But, hey, maybe this was her first day in the "dumps"! I still think this a good photograph. Ben

This is a great pic although I think the model could have been dressed a little differently, a few tattered clothes and a bit of dirt would have gone a long way.
