Favorite Photo From the Len's Blog

http://lens.blogs.nytimes.com/2015/03/27/documenting-the-blues-in-the-mississippi-delta/?module=BlogPost-Title&version=Blog Main&contentCollection=Multimedia&action=Click&pgtype=Blogs&region=Body#slideshow/100000003595848/100000003595864

I Like this photo because all the weeds and grass in the photo that are on the house and on the ground all come together in the photo to form unity.
