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.

Now that looks like the GB I remember! So glad they saved this treasure from a bygone era!! I loved the way your other photo caught the expanse as well! My "bucket list" still calls for a English Rail Joruney of the countryside... I have seen so many enticing beautiful videos of your great old trains and beautiful scenery.

I like your shot Andrea and I also like the word 'phaffed' because the 'P' is silent as in 'bath'. Lol.

You did great here. Your work of art is pure and alive. I thank you for it. 5+!

Great, moody shot that looks like it could be from a 1930's film noir classic. Good choice not to postwork it, as it looks perfect as is...
aztek
This is awesome as is, doesn't need postwork, IMHO! Great shot, Andrea, and thanks for sharing :)

Phaffed?! Very atmospheric. My first thought was "Quick Watson, the game's afoot!" Nice work.
goodoleboy
I phaffed? What strange colloquialisms you employ in your narrative. Anyway, a moist atmosphere and mood have created a somber eerieness in this, one of my favorite kinds of ambience, Andrea. Cool capture!
weesel
Very good image. Isn't it amazing how PW can go in complete circles sometimes!:)

I love this, I'm glad you left it. The misty grey light outside the red bricks is wonderful!
danapommet
I like the opposite POV and the old red brick work!
