A basic square brown MHC that is set in a textured concrete rectangle. The concrete at the bottom of the rectangle is seriously dimpled, but just in one spot. Like a dog jumped in wet concrete then quickly changed its mind.

A manhole cover with a pattern of dots is surrounded by grass and brown leaves that have fallen from trees. Trees are on the horizon, where the sun is rising.

There are many songs about this city, but Tom Waits wrote one of the best, simply titled "Chicago." Out today, Mavis Staples' new album kicks off with her fantastic version of the song. I'm so glad to hear this quintessential Chicago singer putting her own stamp on it.

In honor of the Sandwich Guy, here is a pic from my 2016 archives. I stopped at a fast food restaurant in Mountain Home, Idaho on a very hot day. These dried-up tomato slices were in the parking lot.
#photography #abstract #tomato
A yellow paint stripe runs diagonally across a concrete parking lot, while a seam runs vertically. Two tomato slices have been discarded, desiccated by the afternoon sun. One slice is fully within the yellow stripe; the other touches it.

Iron cover with a Halloween theme. Location is an old neighborhood in Macon, Georgia.

An iron cover on a brick street. Across the street is a two story house with an ornate front porch. Halloween decorations are on the house, including a giant green bug on the porch roof.

Ready for Halloween, in Chicago’s West Lawn neighborhood, on #ManholeCoverMonday

Round iron Chicago Sewer cover in the intersection of a residential neighborhood. In the background are houses with Halloween decorations on them. It’s daytime and the skies are overcast. Halloween decorations on the corner, between the sidewalk and the street, composed of a family of skeletons, some sitting in chairs, some standing, some are humans and others are small domestic animals. The standing human skeletons are wearing silver and black capes and black top hats. One holds a trumpet, the other a saxophone.

E.E.C. in an expansive mood, despite the rain. #manholecovermonday #neworleans
Old cover with the letters "E.E.C.", with a concrete layer on top. Around it, red arrows are spray-painted across the wet sidewalk tiles.
