Yes, it does. Otherwise it will likely be classified as an adjective or adverb.

where what is the object of the preposition.
- "This is the book I found the picture in" is "This is the book; I found the picture in the book."

If a preposition does not have an object, it is not a preposition. It is an adjective, adverb, or possibly a conjunction.

Is us a indirect object or a object of a preposition?
"Us" is a pronoun, and can be both an "indirect object pronoun", and the object of a preposition, all at the same time. For example, it ("us") is the *indirect object* of the sentence: "He gave it to us". And it is also the *object* of the preposition "to". A preposition always has an object - it is the thing that the preposition acts on. "to me..." "me" is the object of the preposition "to". "from home..." "home" is the object of the preposition "from". "according to dad..." "Dad" is the object of the preposition "according to". But this concept of "object" of a preposition has nothing to do with the concepts of "direct object" or "indirect object" of a sentence. Consider this sentence: "He gave the tickets to us in order to please our mother." The sentence uses the preposition "to" twice: First, with the *indirect object* pronoun "us" as its prepositional *object* (...he gave the tickets to us...). The word "to" is also used again to introduce the *adverbial phrase* "...in order to please our mother". In this adverbial phrase, the phrase "...please our mother" is the *object* of the preposition "to" used in the adverbial phrase. The entire adverbial phrase modifies the verb "gave" - and, of course and more importantly, is neither a direct object or an indirect object of the sentence. It's an adverbial phrase. And its also the "object" of the preposition "to". As you can see, the concept of "object" of a preposition does not have anything to do directly with the concept of "direct object" or "indirect object" of a sentence.

What is object of the preposition?

We went to the grocery store for milk. (the grocery store is the first object of a preposition; milk is the second object of a preposition.)
