Ha! Well, I subjugate the relative size of things to larger concerns in designing a picture, Ann. That said:

A) It's a delicate balance.

B) The coffee can I used is huge. Larger than any you would see in England. And the guitar is very small--not a toy, but probably a soprano acoustic guitar, if such a designation exists. It was manufactured in Spain, home of the guitar, which produces the instrument in a broad range of sizes.

I'm kind of glad that you're jarred by the dimension of things. Pleasantly jarred, it seems. I must admit, though, that I am somewhat jarred by your being jarred by a concern for the relative sizes! Pleasantly jarred.

Thanks.
