My friend Rion Nakaya is an amazing photographer who now lives in Paris and takes train rides across the continent for short weekend trips, just like a good European. This photograph is from a set she put up recently of the wares on display at Bilbao's Riverside Meat Market; I love this photo in particular because most of us are so disconnected from the realities of what we eat, with supermarket aisles full of plastic-wrapped ground beef and freezers packed with boxed chicken nuggets, and this shopkeeper's display leaves you no choice but to consider that yes, your pork chops came from an actual animal because here is its head right in front of you. It's both real and beautiful.
