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.

LOL Holy cow. They must really really want what ever this is locked up. One of the most amazing shots so far in your lock series. I'm sure there is a good reason to have so many different locks on this, but I can't imagine what it is.

This must be the ultimate 'just to make sure' bit, a total lockout.

Oh wow, a windfall of padlocks, all different in style and lined up in an orderly fashion! My jealousy knows no bounds with this fortunate find. Superb POV to depict this treasure trove.

Very funny catch...just a few too many padlocks.

Typical utility company style. Can see this multiple padlocking at most radio/cell towers as well as other utilities. Especially where there is an easment. Can imagine how your spirit was uplifted by this sight though(big smile).

Eight padlocks in one shot. That must be a record Andrea and they all look different.

When one isn't enough...use eight. But why?
three_grrr
It appears that the locks that are on the thing are also locked ... maybe so no one will steal the locks?? This has to be ultimate lock picture!!
auntietk
The motherlode!!! :D :D :D :D :D Fabulous!

Must be intensely valuable! Either they do not want anyone in, or anyone out. Perhaps there is a mystery behind those locks? Wonderful image. The puzzle will be the entertainment.

Hate to get there and remember the keys are on the table at home...
bebert
exposition ??? :) nice shot

Now there's something you don't see everyday, a padlocked padlock. LOL at Crabby. I noticed there is a place for each of the five at the bottom. I'd like to know the logic behind that. Marvelous discovery and capture.

LOL have worked as a contractor for a local water co for 25 years.. There are so many people that have to get into a storage facility for maintenance work it seems fool hearty but its not.I think the most locks ive seen on one gate was eight, but nothing as elaborate as this... Bravo on the shot...amazing that things we all take for granted can be used in an artful way... b
