It was the old-fashioned porch that caught my eye. The rosewood
blinds, the wrought-iron latticework, the window panes in primary colours. The
house, unlike many others in the locality, looked in good repair- clearly the
family hadn’t yet fallen into bad days.
‘Saba Heritage’, I mused. The name sounds Persian, but the
locality has been almost entirely Catholic for generations. Why would a
well-to-do Islamic family have settled there?

Natasha - Wow! A powerful 'photo and a powerful question! I think very often we simply do not see what is in front of our own eyes. That's why I think taking the time to just...see things is so important. Thanks for reminding me of that.
Great shot, and you're right. I guess sometimes we do get caught up in our own little worlds and miss important things. <3
Wow. I didn't see it at first either. Those details sometimes zoom right on by!
