Always good to turn one of these over…

After the last few postings, some degree of normality returns…
The Vomit Inducing Creation…
It’s enough to make your throw up. Surely there are better images than this? Surely better use can be made of the Photoshop Neural Filter. NFT anyone?
The Full On Attack on the Senses
Another example of truly horrible art that must surely be worse than any of the other rubbish I’ve knocked out over the years. This abhorrent image, if you cared to look at it, would have the same effect as having red hot needles plunged into your eyes. You have been warned. Look away now. NFT anyone?
The Tragic End of an Image..
Another image bites the dust after being ravaged by the Photoshop Neural Filter. It is cruelty on an epic scale. This image has been well and truly brutalised. Further abuse has been applied to this image using a symmetry filter. My cruelty towards images knows no bounds. Lovers of fine art everywhere, feel free to weep. NFT anyone?
The Digital Hatchet Job…
More Photoshop Neural Filter cruelty going on here. A perfectly reasonable image ruthlessly sacrificed in the name of art (art, after all, is what you can get away with isn’t it?). NFT anyone?
The Dandelion Destroyer
It’s what happens when you let me run amok with Photoshop’s Neural filter – a dangerous tool in the wrong hands! You’ll find the original unsullied image below…
The Green Splodge…
More Photoshop Neural Filter sculduggery..(digital doodling).
The Unpacking
It’s clever how nature unpacks itself. Brilliant engineering…
The Leaf
We take them for granted but we’d be stuffed without them…

The Pilot’s Briefing
Join us on a British Airways flight and listen to the pilot briefing the passengers about the up and coming flight to Chania, Crete. I’m sure someone will tell me that the image I have chosen is not that of an Airbus A380!
The Cave and the Libyan Sea
Join me in a cave close to the Libyan Sea in Crete. The cave was a natural echo chamber. Listen to the waves breaking and the echo as the sound of the waves bounced around inside the cave. You will also hear me tramping about in the cave. There was no sand but plenty of gravel underfoot.
The Duff House Walk
Join me for a walk in the woods close to Duff House in Banff, Aberdeenshire, Scotland.
The Girl in the Woods…
The Rhododendron
The Dried Dead Leaves
It was the colour that caught my eye..
The Fluffy Thing…
The Flower
If you go down to the woods today….
The Sounds of a Taverna in Hora Sfakion, Crete
Join me in a Taverna right next to the sea in Hora Sfakion, Crete. Listen to people enjoying a fine meal and you will also hear the sounds of the waves washing up on the nearby beach. What a wonderful place to enjoy Greek food.
The Girl in the Red Coat…
We’re firmly back in Scotland!

The Farewell Crete Video
We left Crete yesterday and return to the UK after a wonderful three weeks staying at the Vritomartis Naturist Resort.
Hoda’s Walk (Version 2)
And updated copy of yesterday’s video
The Gorge
Hoda’s Walk
Hoda was our guide today as we walked down the Imbros Gorge in Crete. A 8 kilometre hike!
Our stay in Crete at the Vritomaris Naturist Resort is coming to an end. We will miss it!
The Two Choices
How many times in life do we have to make a yes/no decision?
The Captain
The Sound of Cretan Bees
Join me at the Vritomartis Naturist Resort close to Hora Sfakion, Crete as I listen to the very busy bees and other insects buzzing around large plants close to our beautiful room which overlooks the Libyan Sea. You might also hear the occasional bird!
The Beetle Sex Orgy
These tiny spotted beetles (top left of image) spent the whole day in the bush outside our room mating. Twosomes, threesomes, foursomes – beetles, it seems, have a really good and varied time in the mating season. Lucky them!
The Local Cretan Dish
A wonderful local dish which is a pancake, filled with feta cheese, with honey on top. Delicious!
The Mountain Critter
I came across this little chap whilst I was wandering around the mountains in Crete today. He or she wasn’t best pleased to see me and soon scampered off. We’ve been trying to work out whether anyone owns the goats or whether they are just wild…
The Mountain Road
There is not a lot of room for error when you take the road through the mountains in Crete.
The Holiday (leave your clothes at home!)
Enjoying our time in Crete at the Vritomartis Naturist Resort (growing old disgracefully).
The Rusting Weapon
A rusting weapon, probably from World War 2, found lying around close to a taverna in the mountains in Crete. War – what is it good for?
The Old Quarter
The Smoker
The PONG Boat
The Pong Boat. When I first noticed the boat I thought it had PONG written on the back but, on closer inspection, it turns out it is a boat selling natural SPONGE, sea shells and so on.
The Hooch Stash
Found! Where the booze is hidden!
The View from the Mountains
Looking down from the mountains in Crete towards the southern shore of this wonderful island.
The Baby Shark
Do you eat the shark, or does the shark eat you?
The Desert is TRULY a powerful dish!
The Potter
The Sound of Cretan Sheep
Join me here in wonderful Crete as we listen to a large herd of sheep passing close to the chalet where we are staying at the Vritomartis Naturist Resort in Crete. The sound of sheep bells (the sheep have bells around their necks for some reason) really is one of the wonderful sounds you will hear on this most delightful Greek Island. I can also highly recommend the Vritomartis Naturist Resort. A wonderful hotel in all respects.
The Bullet Holes
For some reason, here in our part of Crete, they like to shoot at road traffic signs. Not sure why.
The Sunset Dregs
Here we are in Crete and due to being obliged to finish a bottle of wine, I missed the sunset and so this is an image of what was left of the sunset with camera handheld. Lucky to get an image at all!
