Really great, Joe. Looks like a couple of moonshine jugs in number 4.

Thank you Barbara for your kind comment. So, that is how moonshine jugs look like? I have no idea and no experience in this but sort of rather doubt that this was the purpose in this islamic country! But good thinking, Barbara!

All nice, all interesting--The staircase shot really stands out to me. It’s one I’d put on my wall.

I love the simplicity in all of the way they live and occupy space. And they take advantage of the sunlight in a useful manner and their implements are basic and limited in quantity. The decorations are modest and not over-stated and it gives one a sense of less tension or expediency. The spaces are complete when occupied by the inhabitants...an almost Doll House quality. Very attractive & interesting Joe.

Thank you again for your efforts.
