1. The first thing I notice in the Photograph is the building in the background, which is on fire. This seems to catch my eye first.
2. There are people in the photograph and they seem to be watching the house burn while standing far away by the train tracks.
3. The train tracks seem to be overgrown by plants and have not been used in probably 10 years.
4. The burning house seems to be made of wood.
5. The objects in front of the house look to be a stockyard of wood, which can be used for building things.
6. This photo was taken at either dawn or dusk. If i had to choose I would say it was taken at dusk when the sun is setting.
Story: Martha was just about finishing mashing the potatoes when she suddenly remembered that she had forgotten the cranberry sauce. It was Thanksgiving day and Martha was having her family over to her newly bought dream house; a two story home in the countryside that she was planning to raise a family in. Martha rushed out the door, totally forgetting about the turkey cooking in the oven and the multiple luscious food she had planned, cooking on the stove. When Martha arrived at the grocery store, which was twenty minutes away, she remembered the stove and oven and became nervous. She rushed home.
When Martha turned off the main road and came speeding down her driveway, she saw smoke coming from the roof of her house and feared the worst. Her fears were correct as she saw her house had burst into flames. Her neighbors had seen the fire and called the fire department, and were now gathered outside watching the firemen do their job. Martha got out of her car and dejectedly walked down the fire tracks that paralleled her house, not able to look at the sight of her dream house wasting away.

An appropriate story for the season, Dan; thank you.
