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.

Lovely composition..the flowers framed in the brown mirror surround and the brown vase..clever and very pleasing. Hope Christmas was a pleasure

I like the roses, and the vase you chose sets them off beautifully. Very classy combination!

A great way to make a bouquet even bigger .. lovely shot with reflections. I have yet to smell a men's cologne that I like around here. the one you have sounds like something i'd like. I have citrus smelling shampoo and soaps, which i love

Nice photos Andrea! Wish I could smell it as I really like citrus odors as well as roses, particularly the Wild Alberta Rose. I had one barber cutting my hair for over 40 years and he had a powder talc he used at the end with the Wild Rose scent. I never saw it anywhere else nor have I ever been able to find anything here with that scent except for the wild roses themselves.

This is a lovely still life. Beautiful. I don't wear fragrace myself. The last time a woman made a pass at me (sooo long ago) she told me I smelled really good and asked what was I wearing? I replied, "Soap."
