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.

It's amazing where moss can thrive - nevermind just survive! Super capture Andrea!

Oh well, there goes the neighborhood. Nicely shaped leaves and beautiful back lighting. I like how an annex has taken hold at lower right.

Amazing with this light, must be seen on zoom; with all the drops and also a spider have left something here. The mosses looks like they are dancing full of joy in that light.

Great capture Hugs Susan~

The amazing thing is that little clump of moss will catch dust and dirt out of the air and will grow even bigger. Some very nice lichen in the background too.

This is marvelous! A brand new colony captured in it's infancy!
