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.

Snapdragons always remind me of my early years and my mom's garden. She always had snapdragons in spring and summer and I loved playing with them! Beautiful!

How lovely that they are still blooming this late in your season. They seem to get blight with me so it is a while since I have grown any but they are so pretty aren't they.

Awesome capture of a variety of snapdragon I'm not familiar with.

Lovely colors and still going strong in mid November.

English is such a bizarre language. We have a breakfast cereal here made from wheat called 'Grape Nuts'. There are no grapes or nuts in it. I imagine snapdragons do not snap nor are they dragons. They are lovely though. Wonderful capture.

Beautiful! I've got a picture somewhere of this very color, covered in snow. They're hearty things, and so nice to have around!
