deleting pics from google photos

how do you select multiple images to delete rather than having to select each photo individually that then opens in a new window to then have the delete option showing?
i would like to select many to delete in one go.

many thanks.

    just hoover over top left corner of image and you will see a 'tick'. click 'tick' on all the images you want to delete and hit 'bin' or 'trash' if you haven't changed to proper english language
