Don't you hate it sometimes when you forget how to do something? This happened to me while I was staying at this hotel. I wanted to try the different color isolations, but I forgot how to do it. I spent like half a day fiddling with all the settings of the camera, till I got it right. This is the result of my experiment. I call it Green Adoration. Why I called it so? I don't know. It sounded catchy and a bit humoring. There is a lot of green around the goddess statue, so it seemed proper. The green was beneath the goddess as if adoring her. As such, I called this photo Green Adoration.

The entire hotel was decorated with goddess statues. It added a bit of class to the place. Hotels need to have more figure sculptures for decoration. The green also alludes to a much darker malice in this hotel. Since this aimed at being an eco resort, there was a bounty of mosquitoes. There was a small nature looking swamp that was breeding the lot. This is the problem that eco people do not wish to address. As things stand, humans can only live in controlled nature. Being surrounded by true nature always spells trouble. 

Long story short, at night we got mauled by the mosquitoes. Some of the folks brought mosquito repellant, but by the look of their legs in the pool it did not work. Everyone I saw had at least 12 mosquito bites. I came back from the trip feeling alright. I suppose they did not have anything too serious. The truly bad mosquitoes live in Florida. They are the aedas aegyptis. They have been trying to cull the population of these mosquitoes for the past century or two. As of late, they tried mutant mosquitoes. They hope they will breed with the females and make the next population sterile. 

So far, it has not worked. As Ian Malcolm once said, Life finds a way. Mosquitoes are very efficient human exterminators. If you think about it, they are human's only natural predator. They are always more of them, than they are of us. In a sense, you could think of them as the true top predator of the world. I am sorry for going on about mosquitoes. They really bug me, but not as much as other vermin. Speaking of vermin, I saw one of those fellows dead in a bush somewhere. Let's just say that there is a reason why the hotel is full of cats.
