I went to a farm and found two people in love with each other and with the utility of old agriculture technology. Yes, it's as weird and wonderful as it sounds. #photography gregfallis.com/2026/09/28/u...

A young man and woman quietly talking to each other on a farm.

Kirkland Poisoned Apples were on sale at Costco yesterday. Limited time offer. One per customer. No returns. #ricohgr3x #ricohsnaps #photography #DemocraticCamera #urbanphotography

Two things. First, the cat, with pinpoint accuracy, puked kibble on the TV remote. Second, as I was attempting to clean that astonishing mess, I saw something odd outside. A leaf, falling, had been caught by a single strand of spider web.

I find myself happily living in a farm state without any understanding at all of farming, farm life, or farm culture. But yesterday I visited a couple of historic barns and saw some old tractors. #ricohgr3x #ricohsnaps #photography #DemocraticCamera #RuralStuff

The engine housing of an antique Minneapolis & Moline tractor in front of a cornfield. An inverted can of Pork & Beans serves some obscure mechanical function.

Shot this as I was walking down the stairs to the riverwalk. Spent the next 2-3 minutes looking at this scene from different perspectives, thinking there might be a better composition. Never shot another frame. #ricohgr3x #ricohsnaps #photography #DemocraticCamera #urbanphotography

Stairway down to a riverwalk. Dark reflections of buildings appear in the top of the frame.

Ok, hear me out. A Lord of the Rings remake but with these two taking the One Ring to Mordor.

I really dislike these hulking snub-nosed mutant pickups. I'd guess about a third of all the pickups in this parking lot fell into the same blank, pitiless, brutish category.

This is how the bony boy celebrates #Caturday. I wish I could sleep so peacefully.

Art Spiegelman's cover for the New Yorker, September 24, 2001. I moved from Manhattan to an old farmhouse in rural Pennsylvania a few weeks before 9/11. I'd enjoyed the newfound quiet, but after 9/11 the quiet felt more like isolation. There were no more planes in the sky.

The cover of The New Yorker magazine two weeks after the 9/11 attacks, by Art Spiegelman. It's all black with the silhouettes of the twin World Trade Center towers in deeper black.

You know how sometimes you're getting ready to leave the house to make a Costco run and you open the door and step outside only to see something so gobsmackingly awful that all you can do is stand there and stare at it in horror?

Modern day suburban nightmare--a white Cybertruck parked publicly on the street.

"Is that the Ricoh GR4? I've been looking at them." I admitted it was a #RicohGR3x & snapped her photo without even looking. I showed it to her and I think maybe she's going Ricoh shopping. #ricohsnaps #photography #DemocraticCamera #streetphotography #monochrome

I generally think of myself as Southern, but I lived in New England for several years, Mid-Atlantic for a few years, and I've spent the last decade or so in the Midwest. I've never even visited Delaware. My dialect is American Fucked Up.

I wrote about Taro--her life and her photography--back in January of 2008. This photo, shot by Robert Capa, was taken only a few months before she was killed. salon.utata.org/2008/01/13/g...

A photograph by Robert Capa during the Spanish Civil War shows a Loyalist soldier and Gerda Taro in a battle on the Aragon front near Huesca in 1936. She was killed a few months later.

No, I'm sorry, but I'm not quite willing for it to be September already. I've still got plenty of unspent August in my pocket. #ricohgr3x #ricohsnaps #photography #DemocraticCamera

Sometimes you shoot a photo just because of the weirdness. This is NOT a good photograph, but it amused me, and that's reason enough to press the shutter release. #ricohgr3x #ricohsnaps #photography #DemocraticCamera #streetphotography #monochrome #HumansOfBlueSky

Are you fucking kidding me, Google Maps? When somebody told me y'all did this, I didn't believe them. But Jesus suffering fuck... This is some weak-ass, cowardly, down-on-your-knees bullshit.

On a typical Saturday around 28,000 people shop at the Des Moines Downtown Farmers Market. Some days it seems like all 28,000 are standing between me and the tiramisu latte. #ricohgr3x #ricohsnaps #photography #DemocraticCamera #streetphotography #monochrome #HumansOfBlueSky

Anthropeum is the best, most frustrating, art and culture and history and sociology game ever. You're given ten cultural artifacts from all over the globe and challenged to guess where and when it was made. I usually score in the middle 50% group. But today...

Hope you recover quickly. Sofas are nice and comfy, but it's better when lounging on them is a matter of choice rather than a necessity. Here's a photo from a recent bike ride.

Houseboats moored in a reservoir created by a large dam. Some sort of dam-related structure has markings denoting flood depths. Billowing white clouds are in the background.

Bikes on bridges is always a thing. The High Trestle Bridge, half a mile long, 130 feet above the Des Moines River Valley.

An ebike at the entrance of the High Trestle Bridge over the Des Moines River Valley; half a mile long, 130 feet high, a tad scary on windy days.

Took a cross-town shortcut on a MUP through a fairly new housing development and... I am once again asking that every cyclist be issued a paintball gun and tasked with bringing order and justice to #bicycle infrastructure everywhere. #bikesky

On a bike you can sometimes forget all the grit and grunge of the never-ending news cycle, and see instead some simple flowers, and the ridiculous clouds, and a family of four fishing. #ricohgr3x #ricohsnaps #photography #DemocraticCamera #BikeTherapy #HumansOfBlueSky

Just off a bike trail, a field of yellow flowers, a family fishing off a pier, absurdly puffy white clouds reflected in the calm surface of a lake.

I'm embarrassed to say how long I loitered here, waiting for somebody--anybody--to walk by wearing something--anything--colorful. But nope. Some days the world just doesn't cooperate. #ricohgr3x #ricohsnaps #photography #DemocraticCamera #urbanphotography
