  • As the heavy rains arrive in our area, many outdoor weekend plans are being cancelled or postponed, including arts-related events we tweeted about earlier. DCist is tracking those schedule changes as they learn about them.
  • The Friends of Mitchell Park in D.C. are having a photo contest. Enter by October 15.
  • “A lot of brands are starting to reach out to dogs because dogs make people happy, and brands want their ads to make people happy.” The fast, furry rise of the Instagram-famous pet.
  • In his home country, the influences of legendary Indian photographer Raghubir Singh are still seen today.
  • Living among deteriorating buildings of failed experiments to expand housing in the suburbs are the seniors who first lived there. A poetic vision of Paris’s crumbling suburban high-rises.
  • One of the 2015 MacArthur Fellows is photographer LaToya Ruby Frazier, who “uses visual autobiographies to capture social inequality and historical change in the postindustrial age.”
  • “So This Is What a Murderer Looks Like.” Defense lawyer Sara Bennett’s photos of four women re-entering society.
  • Skewed gender norms and twisted, dreamlike scenes abound in this selection of images from the newly released book “Reveal and Detonate: Contemporary Mexican Photography.”
  • What life is like as a twentysomething nun.
  • Violence erupted during demonstrations at the lack of policing in Masiphumelele, Cape Town, an area that has been volatile for weeks.
  • Damon Winter found that when it comes to photographing Donald Trump’s campaign, there are no quiet moments.
  • A mountain lion spent the afternoon atop a 35-foot utility pole in the California desert after apparently getting spooked by a bus of screaming school children.
  • This leopard in India is clearly a big fan of Winnie the Pooh.
