All inclusive
While finding an “authentic” place is fashion nowadays in the tourist world , we did the opposite.
The old fashioned all inclusive formula works well enough for us. Just relaxing, eat and drink all you want, enjoy the entertainment and when you want to go somewhere, nobody is stopping you.
And during an all inclusive holiday there is ofcourse one thing a photographer really can enjoy indoor, and that's food photography.
Here are some chocolate cakes and other cakes for you.

Street and social documentary photography from Glasgow, Scotland.
Captured in July 2018 where a group of far right fascists were holding a demonstration and a much larger group opposing them had gathered as a counter-protest.
I am absolutely appalled at the scenes that I have seen across media and social media channels of the far right riots and racist hate in cities around England.
Yes they are far right racist thugs. People of colour have been targeted specifically. Pulled from their cars, hounded and beaten on the streets by a mob, roadblocked and prevented from driving on their way. Two hotels housing asylum seekers were set alight. Arson with intent to endanger life. I have seen swastika tattoos, Nazi salutes and heard racist chants. They even burned a library. Nazis like burning books. Stones were thrown at Filipino nurses on their way to cover emergency shifts.
I have seen this described as 'anti-immigration protest' but these people are only concerned about immigration from non-white countries. That's racism. Call it what it is.
It's sickening. This is regression of society and social media has played a huge role in this. The algorithms that value engagement lend themselves to divisive issues being promoted. The algorithms lend themselves to creating echo chambers for extremism. Some social media channels have almost no moderation anymore either and are actively pushing far right ideology in the name of 'freedom of speech'.
I am ashamed to be English. I am ashamed to be British. I am ashamed for the whole nation.
This is a small but vocal and violent group. If we, everyone else, do not stand up against them then we become complicit. If we do not rise up and show love, compassion and care to our communities, our whole inclusive communities, then we are complicit.
The parallels to 1930s Germany are terrifying. It started with the 'othering' of minorities, the scapegoating of racial groups and our politicians and mainstream media have been complicit in platforming and normalising far right fascist views. We are witnessing pogroms on our streets.
Immigration and multi-culturalism enriches us.
Our cultures and identities do not get lost, they get celebrated and shared.
We are one single species, among millions of others, trying to survive on a tiny oasis in the vastness of space.
My politics are irrelevant. I simply care about people. I have empathy. I have compassion. I want humanity so survive and I want it to do so peacefully without hate.
Share love. Share compassion. Share peace.
Care and take care.
Excerpt from www.milton.ca/en/news/exclusively-inclusive-traffic-boxes...:
The Town of Milton, with partners Arts Milton and Red T Media, are excited to launch a two-year public art project funded by the Ministry of Citizenship and Multiculturalism's Anti-Racism Anti-Hate Grant Program.
This year "Exclusively Inclusive” is a public art project that explores the themes of racism and hate with the hope that we can all do better. Ten artists have created art to be placed on certain traffic boxes in Milton. The traffic box art speaks to inclusion, diversity, and equity themes. The artists themselves represent diverse backgrounds and experiences, and each artist has brought their unique perspective to the themes of the collection. Part of the images created for the traffic boxes are included in an exhibit in Holcim gallery, along with an additional art piece contributed by each artist.
The first of the traffic box installations have occurred with the remaining nine installations occurring over the next while.
"As A Place of Possibility, the Town of Milton aims to be a community that is a leader when it comes to welcoming diversity and celebrating inclusion. There is no place for hate and racism in our community. Sharing messages of inclusion, diversity and equity through art provides an opportunity for individuals of all ages to see, reflect, and start the conversation. We are fortunate to partner with these talented artists, and thank Arts Milton and Red T Media their leadership on this public art project that delivers such an important message.”

Haleakalā NP, HI
Can't have one without the other.
This photo was taken at the exact same place just an hour earlier as the last photo I posted from Haleakala's summit. I think it's a great example of how different lighting and a different camera lens can drastically change the photo. The prior photo had a great view and I would consider it more of a "documentary"-type photo, one that shares more or less what my eyes saw at that time. This photo to me is much more ripe with visual metaphor and meaning to me - one might say "artsy."
