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!
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!
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.

A most impressive wingspan on the model aircraft as depicted in this cool capture, Andrea. It looks as if it's just a simple glider and not motor propelled. The aircraft contrasts well against the dark background.

What a cool shot of the guy and his airplane!

Superb capture Andrea. That is something that i would love to try to photograph. Model air planes in the sky. God Bless.

A wonderful tribute. The gentleman looks quite distinguished and well prepared for the weather.

I like both images very much, but I think I prefer the intimacy of the other one. He has a nice face, and something essential comes through in the close-in shot. Excellent additions to the series!

Hmmm, an RC glider! You don't see these very often. I would think he would have trouble finding thermals in that weather. Did you see him fly it, or was he weathered out? I also like the close-up of his face of character.

This is a great shot Andrea and a wonderful memorial to "RED 4". An amazing glider that he has made - a lot of work!
