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.

LOL!!! She is so cute, this little charming lady :)

Oh, poor baby! She looks so woeful. You never know about reincarnation. Some people believe that if you are a good person you come back as a dog. Something to that perhaps. On balance I find most dogs superior to people.

Look like she is appreciative to have the towel. Beautiful shot.

Stunning POV of your drenched Rosie, recovering from a moist encounter with the elements, Andrea. Great color, texture and focus of the young lady, and reminiscent of the big bad wolf, disguised as Grandma, from the tale of Little Red Riding Hood.

Rosie looks so cute in her “holy” disguise and a wonderful capture Andrea!

Poor little girl, wet and shivering! My girl won't even go outside if she hears a raindrop. Seems odd for a dog who loves the snow and will barrel through it for hours given the chance. Oh well...I love this portrait of Rosie, she looks so selfless and "good"!

Oh my gosh, straight to my heart! Precious beyond words!

WOW! My first thought was: "Oh look, a Marushka-the-Babushka dog." Needless to say I giggled. This is such a great pooch portrait. Dogs shivering is oddly amusing, though I doubt they think so. I really love the canine Saintly Mother look she's pulled off so well.

I never knew Mother Teresa had such big pointy teeth and loved walkies! Whodathunkit!

Giggles... :)

For sure she is a Canine Mother Teresa! Nice shot but your hand looks so cold, or else the light on it was shaded somewhat.

She must be a Mother Teresa ... I feel sort of blessed just looking at this! :)
