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.

What a wonderful capture of the old machine and rails. Awesome country landscape it looks gorgeous there. The guys in the background appear to be engaged in this perfect setting. Thanks for sharing Andrea.

There are so many of these wonderful wheels! What a fantastic thing, I wouldn't be able to tear myself away from photographing them from all angles possible. Well captured!

Oh! There's a whole bevy of them! That's way cool. Thanks for sharing the longer view! (Can you believe I said that???) :P

Nice shot. Well done

Capital POV employed, with stellar perspective, in this shot of the bridge uber oxidized wheel mechanism, Andrea! I wonder if it creaks, groans and squeals while in operation.

Excellent shot! :)

Stupendous capture and great POV. I'd love to see this in action, but it appears that it hasn't been used in quite a while

Excellent pic.
jendellas
Wonder if it is still used!!

I do like how you're started with a very limited view and slowly exposed more and more, I like how you've showed us how Throop Mill Cottage and the millpond bridge relate to each other, gives us the lay of the land, as it were. And I love all those wheels .. cogs and stuff! Most excellent series .. more to come????

I like how you included the toothed thing on the left. It anchors the image very nicely. And the perspective leads the eye right to the end of the bridge and the pigeon. Great composition.

I like this full POV - a lot more complex in this photo!

Fascinating lot of cogs.
