Reflection in a framed picture. Simple shot.

So much to say about this framed picture. It's by one of my favorite artists (P Buckley Moss) and commemorates the state I live in. The two people that are depicted in this scene are based on two people that I knew as a child. The man worked with my grandfather; and, after retirement, this couple then worked at a local historic attraction by dressing up as shopkeepers of the 1800s. The artist used them as the model for her painting.

While I've never lived on a farm (city girl all the way), I've always loved this picture and feel like it somehow shows my roots!

I'm realizing I need to scrap this photo, don't I!
