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.

Hehe! Homebase at sunset with propellers, what a great gallery title that'd make, nice fiddling my dear!

Very creative postwork. It has a kind of free-spirited, cartoony feel to it, which I find very fresh & appealing. Nice work...

Great looking postwork on this Andrea. the sky coloring is very cool. I like this sculpture, it is a great example of utilizing discarded items.

With that unique sky color, I really like the near fantasy ambience to this whole image, Andrea. But, odd, I never heard of propeller plants before. I don't suppose you can get the seeds at the local nursery.

WOW! WOW! WOW! I was at work today and I realized that as I walked out, that there was a sidewalk sale at the bookstore across the street! I found 2 Huxley novels, and a whole slew of "vintage" science fiction selections. Needless to say, this image resonates with me, as it has that "vintage" SF book cover vibe to it: those colors, those shapes, the looming alienness of the every day. The colors are brilliant and incredibly well done. This is a marvel!
