Hi, I'm Andrea, and I'm interested in creatures and plants both wild and tamed, and people of all sorts. I only use a compact digital camera ,as I love being able to get it into a back pocket, and not have to cart heavy kit about. I carry a Panasonic Lumix TZ series, binoculars and a hand lens almost everywhere.Most of my outings are with the dogs so I only use point and shoot.
I am getting the hang of Photoshop, thanks to some very kind folk on RR!Â
I have a wildlife garden in Bournemouth, Dorset, in the UK, and spend a lot of time there . I retired from teaching art to teenagers a while ago.
I'm now getting some good results with my digi compacts; it took me a while to make the switch from my old film camera, an 1960 ish Pentax Spotmatic, but the mistakes are much cheaper! Â
I have 4 lodgers, 3 dogs and a parrot who, as at 2017, I have had 40 years.
I has so far had 19 dogs, mostly rescues.

Stellar photo of the Inkcaps, which remind me of a horde of pedestrians, standing on a street corner in the rain under their umbrellas, waiting for the traffic signal to change so they can cross to the other side.

It must be raining at your tennis match with all those umbrellas in your way. :>) Beautiful capture. Dana

Excellent capture! Some seem to be sheltering under others, like a family in a crowd.

This is wonderful. So many, altogether makes a brilliant picture. We have these and tan coloured mushrooms/toadstools in our lawn - not good really but I shall photograph them before we try and get rid.

Magnificent! This too is said to contain coprin (the substance causing problems with alcohol), but nobody eats this mushroom because of the size.
