Thanks for another lovely week, Denver. Here's a taste of our experience through the last seven days.
OK, let's work backwards. Yesterday we went deep into the state's past, circa 1935 and the American Dust Bowl Era. A new tool by Yale University let us scope Colorado photography by the iconic Farm Security Agency during that time.
There's no story for this photo of the parking lot, I just enjoy the pattern:

I also have super enjoyed the food photography coming out of 5280 Magazine, like this scrumptious snap by Aaron Colussi.
This week Brazilian artist Alexandre Orion's mural was vindicated after it was vandalized last month. Orion had to be flown in to complete the four-day restoration.
