Person sitting in a bus stop in front of Portland Community College on the corner of N Killingsworth and N Albina in Portland, OR. The front facade of Tulip Shop Tavern in NE Portland. The front of the building is painted black with colorful tulip motifs painted around the windows, neon lights in the shape of tulips, and a sign backed in black featuring a hand holding a tulip in white. A bicycle is parked in front of the building. The tree next to the Tulip Shop Tavern has dying leaves, one of the first casualties to autumn. Shoes dangle from power lines next to the tree. Flyer on the side of a telephone pole in NE Portland that says "ICE OUT OF PORTLAND". The front facade of Mississippi Records in NE Portland. A delivery man approaches the door to the closed business while an older couple appearing pensive sit on a bench after eating at Sweedeedee, a neighborhood cafe next door (not pictured here). A parked car blocks the view of the building partially. Behind the car, an electrical meter caked in stickers.

Two different realities at play in Portland, OR.

Have a day folks.

Cloudy skies lit aflame by the setting sun above the hills of Southwest Portland. High rise apartment buildings adjacent to the ICE Facility in South Waterfront start lighting up for the evening. McLoughlin Blvd sits at the bottom of the frame empty with no bustling traffic. Trees rise up from the road, their leaves starting to turn autumnal colors. Helicopter flying in the sky used by ICE most likely for surveillance of the few protesters and news people outside of the ICE Facility in SW Portland. Cloudy skies above the helicopter blanket the sky.

Cars line up at a red light on Hawthorne Blvd across from Little Griddle, a neighborhood breakfast spot. The clouds in the distance break up after the rain. Large beams of sunlight jetting out from the clouds shade the silhouette of a helicopter most likely patrolling the skies around the ICE building in SW Portland far in the distance.

Man and woman both wearing hoodies, denim, and Nike shoes and riding the same electric scooter push off the street in unison to get the scooter running in front of a McMenamins Tavern on NW 23rd and NW Savier in Portland, OR. Hunched over man walks across the freight train tracks leading to the Steel Bridge, which is also pictured here looming behind some trees starting to change color in early Autumn. Partly cloudy skies are behind the Steel Bridge. Person riding a mobility scooter while looking at their phone in NW Portland across from a Parking Kitty pay station, a relic from a time before people could pay for parking with a phone.

Pedestrians passing a facade of the Central Library in Downtown Portland. Fallen yellow leaves buttress the curb, where they begin to pile up and will become flattened by cars. A trash can with a cartoon cheeseburger with a flag that says PDX sticking out the top is on the sidewalk next to a man walking past the Central Library. Woman walks while talking on her phone in a parking lot underneath bright yellow leaves that just turned in SE Portland. A parking sign and stop sign is pictured here on the corner of SE Milwaukie and SE Tolman. Cyclist riding in the dedicated bicycle lane in the Lloyd District in Portland. Autumn leaves begin to show on one tree while the other has yet to turn. A house in SE Portland displaying a mural of a mountain with pink clouds on the doors of a garage. The house is obscured by limbs of trees that have leaves that are dying and are yet to fall.

Man practices juggling by balancing a pin on his nose on top of Rocky Butte in Portland, OR. The tower behind the juggler on Rocky Butte is a decommissioned aircraft beacon tower, originally built in 1933 by the U.S. Bureau of Lighthouses for air navigation. Deconstructed homeless encampment in back of a parking lot in Eliot, a neighborhood in the North and Northeast sections of Portland, Oregon. A dirty mattress rests against a fence, along with some belongings. A street sign reads Angle Parking Only. Next to the sign a makeshift memorial featuring a cross adorned with fake flowers. The Fremont Bridge can be seen in the distance behind trees and overgrowth bordering the parking lot. Runner going uphill in Irvington, a neighborhood in NE Portland with a "classic American vibe". The man passes by a Kei micro camper van lit by the setting run. An older house with a front porch in the background is shaded by a manicured tree.
