Thanks. The exposure turned out to be really interesting. None of these have been edited, all taken on an iPhone 6s Plus.

Unfortunately, I have had to explore such places vicariously though even healthy and wealthy (and I am neither) seeing all 200 or so in real life and in their many moods would leave room for not much else.

Then you’ll probably recognize this:
