Here are 5 things I was looking at and loving this week:

Black cowboy culture has seen a recent renaissance and a resurgence of photographers documenting it, but Ron Tarver was one of the OGs. All the recent press is well deserved for The Long Ride Home. His website is also worth your time.

How do drugs affect spider webs? Fascinating. (h/t Eric Maierson)

My friends are doing cool things: This Alabaster Grave is Cengiz Yar’s first monograph. The book questions the cost of the fight against ISIS and the global war on terror as told through the lives and city of Mosul, Iraq that bore the brunt of its destructive force. Cesar Rodriguez is having a birthday sale, so his beautiful prints are only $41. And Jessica Koscielniak and the WHNPA are fighting the good fight against limited access for photographers on the Harris campaign trail.

A “digital heart” an “analog soul” and a $9395 price tag. #LeicaPleaseSponsorMe

Because we could all use a reminder, here are things to do when you’re stuck.
