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.

I was blue, just as blue as I could be Ev'ry day was a cloudy day for me Then good luck came a-knocking at my door Skies were gray but they're not gray anymore Blue skies Smiling at me Nothing but blue skies Do I see (Irving Berlin) Well, in contrast to the song, I don't see no blue skies. And I thought those were real aircraft at first, soaring into the wild grey yonder. Most arcane, A.

I remember Jon Egging. A very sad story. This is a wonderful tribute to him. Your photo shows it off very well.

It's a fantastic memorial. My cousin trained on the Hawks before moving on to the Hornets. I love seeing the Hawks pull G's. They are amazing. As for Jon Egging, he seemed like a top bloke from what I have read. A sad loss, but he went doing what he loved..........RIP.

I must take a trip your way sometime and have a look at this. I saw the aircraft about 15 minutes before the accident happened.

An excellent memorial! I once came within an inch of getting an expenses paid scholarship to a technical college at or near Bournemouth. I alway wondered what would have turned out differently had I got it. It was lost due to red tape basically.

I remember this from last year and the gray sky makes this photo so powerful. A wonderful posting for our Memorial Day.

Spectacular. It took me a moment to realize that this is a stationary installation. The movement in it is quite well-done and I love the details,the shapes, the way it does actually dance. And yes, if one follows one's dreams then it'll be a lot harder to be distracted by crap. I wholly agree with that! This is quite marvelous!
