Our last day here in Canada and I'm looking back over some of our photos. One of the things this trip has shown is how small this world is! We crossed the Atlantic, introduced @bareoaks.ca neighbours to each other, and learnt the Finnish game mölkky from a Dutch couple! @helen.berrimansbareall.uk

On Wednesday evening @helen.berrimansbareall.uk and I visited "Sweat and Reset" which is the new venture of Mike (of @nakedtravels1.bsky.social). He did a "Buck Moon Ritual" in a Finnish style sauna. Saunas in the summer are great when its a bit hot outside as it feels cold coming out afterwards!

Helen standing and smiling to the camera in the doorway of the sauna. It is a small, outside "barrel" sauna with wisp bundles handing beside the door. Helen is wearing only sandals and sunglasses.

Simon is stood inside the sauna looking out. It is a small, outside "barrel" sauna with wisp bundles hanging by the door and the log fire can be seen burning in the background. Beside the sauna, to the right, the end of a bench is in shot too. Simon is wearing only sliders on his feet.

Simon is sat nude in a trough-shaped metal bath filled with cold water, for the cold plunge after coming out of the sauna. The bath is on wooden decking, with grass in the foreground and fencing behind.

A photo from inside the sauna session itself. Helen is lying on her front face down with her head in her raised and folded arms. She is lying on towels on the sauna bench and is clearly hot and sweating. Two arms holding oak wisp bundles from the left of the image have motion blur as they are being used to lightly hit Helen's naked back and torso.

Naked Retro Gaming at @britnaturism.bsky.social Sunfolk coincided with my birthday this year, so I spent the day driving many of my computers and consoles across the country!

Moving to Taunton meant we lost our regular life-modelling arrangements, so its great that we've started to find more contacts here in Somerset. Yesterday I modelled at the White Post Café, in their garden, for a group run by Alex of alexwilliamsillustration.co.uk. Great lighting, but tickly bugs!

A summer evening garden setting with green trees, blue sky with a hint of white cloud, and golden light. To the left, Simon lays nude on a garden bench, one knee raised, head toward viewer. Beyond him on the ground is an angled, weathered mirror. To the right can be seen three women seated on garden furniture, drawing and sketching on pads on their laps. The far right of the image is over the shoulder of a man in the foreground, also seated and sketching.

One of the artist's pieces that they were kind enough to share. A sketch of Simon laying on a garden bench, head away from camera, one knee raised. It is in pencil with a green and yellow watercolour wash over the lawn garden and sky respectively.

Poster for past and upcoming life drawing events at the café. It is red and blue text on a cream background, featuring a simply line drawing of a person's bottom. The text reads:

And so ends #NudeFest2026l The Orange camping field was mostly empty by the time we left, but it was a blast as ever. Non-naturists cannot know the community spirit here. I mean just look at this field which yesterday was packed with columns of tents; not a scrap litter! @helen.berrimansbareall.uk

Close, but missing some of the hidden meanings. The 'nude bottom' waves, for instance. And the 7 rays of the sun that represent the 7 continents of the world. We do need an emoji to represent us. I currently use the bare footprints for that purpose.

The 'naturist symbol' - a line drawing of a yellow sun and blue waves. The text in the image reads:
Designer's/Submitter's Explanation. The simple line drawing should make it easy to adapt to embroidery, viny! decals, etc. The two color design is simple enough to reproduce, but also allows for it to be changed to all one color when necessary. The simplified backside of a body (bum and legs) could be obvious to "those who know" but would otherwise look like water or waves to others - the design is gender, race/skin-tone, and language neutral. The seven rays of the sun represent the 7 continents.
