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.

Very beautiful shot Andrea. That one green leaf that snuck into the shot really sets the others off wonderfully.

Spectacular in its color, clarity, lighting and texture, and looking very much like an oil painting, A. Your leaves are different than the ones I encounter and photograph.

Fantastic capture!

I love the splash of ivy amongst all the fallen leaves. What a wonderful shot! You have an eye for this ... it's the composition, of course. 99 out of 100 people couldn't come close to making this sort of thing interesting at all, but you do it with seemingly no effort!
