Finally, the votes are about to be cast in Iowa. All eyes are turned to see what will actually happen.

But not many will look beyond the candidates and the caucus sites.

In a great feature, Masuma Ahuja of CNN.com shared with us the work of Cody Weber and Kat Kanan’s website Forgotten Iowa. Ahuja decsribes the site as “like going on a virtual road trip through Iowa. The project, launched in winter 2014, is an attempt to photograph and document every single town in Iowa”.

So far, they’ve visited more than 300 towns, says CNN.

The story includes images places like Keokuk, Mystic, Amana, Wheat Cheer and Powdertown. The site has so much more.

For a taste of authentic Iowa beyond the campaign trail, I highly recommend both.
