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.

Stellar pic of the Cheshire cat firmly nestled in the underbrush, Andrea. Sorry to read of your state of health and I wish you a rapid recovery.

Well or ill, you still take a superior picture. I love the mutant cat. Two words, chicken soup! I hope you are feeling better yesterday.

Beautiful! The Chinese lion should scare the weeds away. It must be frustrating for you, I do hope things improve for you soon.

A beautiful section of your garden and I like that Thai style lion. Please take care of yourself and be healthy!
