Philippe Echaroux, who describes himself as an activist artist, has illuminated the Amazon with light projections of the faces of the Surui people, pictured. The tribe, Echaroux said, are ´victims of massive deforestation and gold washers who did not hesitate to violate the Indian’s territory to seize deposits of precious stones'. By illustrating the unflinching faces of the people whose lives are directly affected, the artist hoped to remind the international community of the ongoing environmental threat of deforestation and illegal logging in the region. Street Art 2.0 was designed in response to Indian chief Almir Surui Narayamoga asking for his people’s plight to be highlighted.
From doing yoga in front of Ottawa's parliament to walking the edge of the CN Tower: 16 seriously cool things to do in Canada's cities
SPONSORED Canada is rightly known for its incredible landscapes and wildlife - but its cities are just as epic and packed with brilliant attractions. Visitors can walk around the edge of the CN Tower's observation deck hundreds of feet up in Toronto, do yoga in front of the Hogwarts-style Parliament building in Ottawa and stay in a hotel made of ice in Quebec City.
'Mouldy sun beds, slime in the pool and closed restaurants': Father slams 'shambolic' all-inclusive family hotel for Fawlty Towers-style horrors
Nurse Tim Sheppard booked a week's trip to the Aquis Sandy Beach Resort in Corfu for the half term holiday with his partner Hayley Palk (inset, with Tim), and his two children Eloise, seven, and Amber, five. He described the resort as the hotel from hell - with most of the nine bars and restaurants closed. The family claim that their trip featured mouldy sun beds (bottom right); green slime in the swimming pool; broken drains; a litter strewn beach (top right and bottom left); rubbish stacked in corridors; a cracked and splintered entertainment stage; and dirty water at the buffet. Mr Sheppard, from Exeter, has revealed horror pictures of his £2,200 trip - booked through Thomas Cook.

Enjoying cockpit views, empty cabins and champagne-filled VIP parties while testing these new jets, the Londoner reveals the perks of the job to MailOnline Travel. This year he has flown on short haul deliveries to Helsinki, the Swiss Alps and Frankfurt on Europe's first A320neo but more often than not can be found on long haul flights to Thailand and Uganda among other destinations, trialling the Airbus A350.
Now THAT’S mist-ifying: Incredible footage shows planes landing at London’s Gatwick airport despite dense fog
According to the filmmaker visibility was so poor at the London airport that some planes were actually forced to circle before landing or divert to another airport. The video has been viewed over 25,000 times online, with many impressed by the filming and the skill of the pilots. According to Plane Clever, by Christopher Bartlett, modern airliners can ‘land virtually automatically in fog’, but the air traffic controllers will space the aircraft out more as they land and depart.
Now THAT'S a rum do: Havana is a beautiful and vibrant city... and even better during a huge cocktail-making competition
Havana is exactly how you imagine it: blazing heat, vintage cars, good cigars and wonderful music. In many ways it is hard to put your finger on what makes this beautiful, crumbling, historic and vibrant city just as special as it is. But MailOnline Travel discovered there's a lot more to this beautiful Cuban city when we travelled to the Caribbean island for the 11th Havana Club Cocktail Grand Prix (inset).

Why the hotel of the future could be an eco-pod robot 'jellyfish' with 'tentacles' that catch trash and clean polluted water
Conceived by Janine Hung, a graduate architect based in the Philippines, the floating lodges (pictured) boast kitchen and bathroom-equipped living quarters and gardens in their underbelly that can raise fish and grow vegetables. Beneath the surface, the solar-powered structure has 'tentacles' (inset) which capture and collect rubbish, and filter polluted water - either storing it for human use or returning it to its source clean.
Tourist who claims she caught pneumonia from 'vile' room covered in 'mould, blood and vomit' during Club 18-30 trip is hit with £3k medical bill DESPITE having insurance
Amy Evans, pictured centre, a 21-year-old McDonald's worker from Aberdeen, Scotland, believes she got ill as a result of her room in Ayia Napa, Cyprus - pictured - which she says was covered in 'mould, blood and vomit'. The Club 18-30 trip was booked through Thomas Cook, along with insurance, but Ms Evans claims that according to the travel company, she wasn't covered because she failed to disclose her asthma in her insurance application. The travel company has now reversed its decision and confirmed to MailOnline that it would be covering her medical expenses after all.
Pictured: The incredible submerged plaza you have to walk into the sea to reach (no wonder the design is based on submarines)
A futuristic-looking plaza will be transforming the Florida waterfront from 2018 and to reach it, you have to walk into the sea. But fortunately, you won't get wet as the whole complex will be set on a floating base that's inspired by the technology used on submarines. Currie Park (main) will occupy a 19-hectare vacant area off the coast of Lake Worth Lagoon in West Palm Beach. As well as featuring restaurants (right inset) and shopping areas (left inset), the huge complex will also have events at the auditorium and a circular pool that overlooks the sea.
A runway built on ice, a landing strip on the edge of a cliff and a private hangar in an A-Lister's back garden: The world's most bizarre airports revealed
Want a journey that really is more interesting than the destination? Then you might want to fly to one of these bizarre airports. In the North Pole there's an airstrip built on floating ice and in South Africa a runway with a 2,000ft drop at the end (inset). And if movie star John Travolta invites you to his Florida property, you've got the option of taking a private jet right to his front door (bottom left).

Revealed: What the world would look like if it was resized according to where people like going on holiday
The map of the world is one of the most familiar illustrations there is. But it looks very different here – because it’s been resized according to where people like going on holiday. The result is that Russia looks peculiarly shrivelled, along with Africa and South America. America, too, does not look quite so mammoth. However, Mexico, Cuba, Portugal, Iceland, Spain, Italy, Greece, Croatia, Turkey and Thailand all look strikingly bloated.

It was a blast while it lasted: Last ever KLM 747 to buzz the beach at St Maarten touches down
One of the best things about Maho Beach, for many, on the Caribbean island of St Maarten-St Martin was seeing KLM’s 747s roar overhead to the airport nearby. But the last ever hair-raising landing by a jumbo belonging to the carrier was made on Friday. Many aviation fans took to Twitter to mourn the end of the era. User Maliniak said: 'Maho Beach without [the] KLM 747 will never be the same.' Kazi Ahmed wrote: 'Avgeek or not the magnificent KLM 747 at St Maarten airport was a sight to see. Sad it has been retired.' Maho Beach is one of the world’s best plane-spotting locations, with thousands of brave holidaymakers flocking there every day to stand directly under the flight path as passenger jets buzz overhead.

Fancy sailing a superyacht from a Bond film or staying in a 'yellow submarine' ? The world's best 'Airbnb' boat deals revealed
The saying goes that 'a boat is a hole in the water in which you pour money' and many boat owners frequently bemoan the lack of use their vessel gets. However the increase in peer-to-peer online marketplaces over the past three years has seen recreational boaters matched with boat-owners, chartering companies and captains. In short it's just like house-sharing website Airbnb - but for boats.

MailOnline Travel has rounded up six of the top companies that can match you with just the boat you need for your trip away. Top left is a superyacht from The World Is Not Enough, top right is the brand new Hanse 505, available in 2017, bottom right the schooner that featured in The Rum Diary starring Johnny Depp, bottom left is a high-tech luxury offering from Sail and inset is a yellow submarine in Liverpool you can stay in for just £62 per day.

Top right is the pagoda at Meidai Lamasery Inner in Mongolia, bottom right Chureito Pagoda Fujiyoshida in Japan, bottom left Thambuddhei Paya Pagoda in Myanmar, top left Shwedagon Paya Pagoda in Myanmar and centre is Gyeongbokgung Palace in Korea.

Let the snow begin! The pound's been on the slide - but there are still great ski deals to be found in Europe
Prices are generally lowest pre-Christmas and in January says Daily Mail's Peter Hardy, while half-term (February 11 for many schools in England and Wales) is the most expensive.
