Not exactly a four bedroom split level palace. Nice comp to show the environment (read junk) surrounding the adobe.

Were you shooting at f/5.6 to try to limit DOF?

A desolate existence. There is definitely a story here of bare existence. Good photo journalism.

Stark! I also like the way you have told the story of the place by including stuff in its setting. Good contrast to the beauty in nature, nice side trip Sandy.
