Creative interpretations: The Depression

I find this depression era photo of a couple selling what looks to be cherry tomatos out of their truck to be fascinating. A great character study. Someone could write a short story from this pic.

Had to cut it down in size for this format, but I put a larger version up at http://www.bigbluebird.com/depressionlarge.jpg

Ro, you might not be a good story teller, but you are one heck of a colorist!
