1) The first thing i notice in this picture is the burning house, towards the back left of the picture.
2) There are five people i can see in this picture, they are walking or standing near a railroad track at the far right side of this picture.
3)the train track look older and the do not seem to be used very often because of all the weeds growing on them.
4)the picture seems to far away for me to be positive but i would guy white painted wood, if not that then i white rock of some sort.
5)They object look to be big cartons or even a dump yard.
6)The picture looks like it was taken early morning.
Paragraph:
Jerry had just gotten home from a long and strenuous day at work, he was exhausted and all he wanted to do was get some shut eye. But once he stepped into the door his wife Mary wouldn't allow him to get any. She had been home all day and went around the house finding things for him to do. So once he walked in the door she bombarded him with a list of quick fixes that she want to be done swiftly. His wife was the nagging type. Never a day without a nag. He had grown annoyed and angry at her over the years, so finally he planned her death while going through the house fixing what she said needed to be fixed. He planned for an hour on how he would lock her into her room, and then burn the house down.
He was getting close to his plan, he had gotten her to come with him into their room. He said he would be right back and locked the door behind him. He retrieved the many gas cans that were in the front lawn and doused the house, now all he needed to do was light a match. He ran outside because the fumes were killing his head, stepped a few steps back and threw the match it hit with a bang and his house was in flames in a matter of seconds. He began to walk away, down the railroad tracks. when he looked back he was finally relieved that he could finally get some shut eye.

Christine, I like your use of the phrase "shut eye," and it brought a little bit of softness to a pretty brutal narrative!
