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.

You can see Buster enjoying the view and the quiet beach. It's a great picture, plenty of depth and a good atmosphere too, Andrea! (btw. Here rarely people wearing wooden clogs. In other parts of the Netherlands more, but also less. The farmers wear them when working on the land.)

There are no boundaries for this dog to run to - only an endless horizon, and Buster stops to contemplate his options, though the wind seems to be telling him which way to go! Have you ever tried to run against the wind? that's what I'm talking about! ;-) perfect composition,Andrea BB

I so concur as alas our tourist season prepares to begin in earnest here in Florida thus begging the age old question, "If it's tourist season, why can't we shoot them?" - LOL! Love the prospective of Buster re-taking his beach!

He's wondering where everyone has gone? so much room to play and run about

England is secure with Buster on watch. Nicely composed giving a great sense of space. I'll bet Buster had a great time.

Very nice work - I like how you positioned Buster near the left edge to emphasis the wide open space available for him to run. Well done.

Perfect title for such a grand view~ If you ever write a book on Buster's adventures this would make a wonderful cover!

I like that - Buster the Beachmaster. Has a great ring to it. I like your pano crop and beautiful low waves. Sweet colors!
charpix
He is so doggone cute! I also like "Buster the Beachmaster" what a great title. I would also like the beach free and clear, even if it is a bit colder. Just bundle up and enjoy.

Buster looks quite content to have chased off all the people! His work is over for one more season. :P Love the pano crop. Master of all he surveys!

In some ways it is not good to have 'been there' - I am missing it! I also see that he has not had a wade yet - too cold? Clive
