There are people on the porches. It kind of seems to me to be a scene where mom had to go get her daughter and bring her home for dinner. She can walk faster and thus puts some distance between them. Another great job of coloring the main focus point, the girl, in the photo, Rob.

This is possibly my favorite thus far Rob. You have so many good ones, it is difficult to choose just one as the best.
I found this information in Wikipedia:

Kosciusko /ˌkɒsiˈʌskoʊ/ is a city in Attala County, Mississippi, United States. The population was 7,402 at the 2010 census.[2] It is the county seat of Attala County.[3]

Kosciusko is located on the Natchez Trace Parkway, northeast of Jackson. It is named for the U.S. and Polish general Tadeusz Kościuszko, who assisted United States military efforts during the American Revolution.[4] However, the Anglicized name of the city omits the "z". Kosciusko was originally named Red Bud Springs for one of three natural springs that were present in the city.

Kosciusko was the home of Magnolia Bible College, and the birthplace for several notable people, including Oprah Winfrey and James Meredith.


I thought you might find it interesting. I assume the houses are up on blocks to help keep out the snakes and varmints. What I like about this one is how it shows them away from the workplace.
Great work.

People are like cameras--sometimes they lose focus.

Another revived 'time document', Rob. Tick's comment has given even more allure to this document. Although I'm not familiar with the Kosciusko, Mississippi history, think that this town could be a settlement for pioneers/cotton mill workers, because of the still unpaved road and the bare front yards of the houses.
It's an image that stimulate the imagination too, even made more intriguing by your always perfect editing and/or colorization work. Kudos again, my friend!

Hi Tick thanks for background information really ads to the image the serie is mostly about child labor I think most countries were built on this cheap labor source what's alarming that in many countries it's still common practice so not of the past but in the now.

In much the same was as the coal mine owners in the mountains of West Virginia and Kentucky, these owners probably didn't feel comfortable with the general public understanding what the lives and homes of their workers were like. That row of near-duplicate shanties behind her are very close in their simplicity and barrenness as the "company homes" in the eastern coal towns. I don't know about theses cotton folks but the coal owners had a real sweet deal, renting out their cheap houses to their workers, where they lived near the coal mine and away from towns, making them reliant on the "company store", and paying them just enough to survive and not better their lot for their families.

If you've ever wanted to make a difference but found it hard to believe that one person could... check out the Kiva Team Caedes discussion thread and discover that anything is possible.

She looks really pleased at looking at the camera as she passes by.

Wonderful, and I too like that it's not in the workplace, very nice addition to this outstanding series.

Here is bit more information for you. (Kosciusko County (/ˌkɒskiˈʌskoʊ/ KOSS-kee-USS-koh) is a county located in the U.S. state of Indiana. Census 2010 recorded the population at 77,358.[1] The county seat is Warsaw.[2]

The county was formed in 1836. It was named after the Polish general Tadeusz Kościuszko who served in the American Revolutionary War and then returned to Poland. The county seat is named after Warsaw, the capital of Poland.)

This is the county I live in.

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust
