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.

A lovely 'wet' shot and I like the filtered version too. I would like to get one of those filters!!

Nobody seems to bother with a 'brolly' anymore ? but what a bit of fun, seeing those two girls on the poster poking their tongues out, for them not being better prepared ... ;)) stupendous capture Andrea! BB

Looks a bit challenging to negotiate with the rain and all.

A wonderful slice of life. Galoshes? Brolly? Rain coat? We don't need no stinking rain gear! Just carry on with that legendary British determination.

I like the shot through the rainy window but rhe FlickR version, with the filter, has more life and vibrant color!

I like this, the feeling of the rain is refreshing!

This could be Chicago (for the rain) and the fact that no one seems to actually be wet, despite their lack of raingear! I like the drooling raindrops quite a lot and the sense of color is really nice and moody.
