This series of photographs was captured with a disposable camera on June 22 in downtown Anchorage, Alaska. It was a sunny 77 degrees Fahrenheit as people filled the streets for various activities. Many patrons visited hot dog vendors and shops around Fourth Avenue. Others attended the Downtown Summer Solstice Celebration. The celebration has drawn thousands of attendees in past years, according to the Anchorage Downtown Partnership.

What’s a Rich Text element?

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

Static and dynamic content editing

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!

How to customize formatting for each rich text

Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
