A late night Milky Way galaxy capture with White Slave hut in the foreground. A spectacular sight to behold in the heavens. Over a period of 300 years, r penal colonies drop offs and imported slaves were used to 'mine' salt from the constructed brine ponds. Slavery ended in the Dutch colonies in 1863 and 758 slaves were released. Not Bonaire's finest moment. Hopefully, humanity learned from this injustice worldwide regardless of country. Modern equipment is now used to excavate the prized mineral, evaporated from ocean water, NaCl.
