A contingent of four Nato warships has docked at Aberdeen harbour.
The military vessels arrived at the weekend, having completed a joint exercise.
The ships and staff, led by German navy commander Martin Schwarz, have made a number of port visits and carried out mine clearance operations to contribute to collective defence and regional security.
They were due to leave Aberdeen today.
The fleet is made up of two German ships, the Donau and Dillingen, the Primula from Belgium and the Norwegian boat Otra.
