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.

See, having Mohawks & Metal are just signs of a nice well-rounded guy! I like the second "Here" best. Looks like he has had metal in other places on his face and I see a slight tattoo at the hairline which is definitely going to become more visible before too long. I think we shall have to start calling you the Superdrug Accostrix!

OMG, another loony tune. You've got the nerve of a bandit, A. Great bit of digifiddling in this portrait of someone who looks a bit too old to be sporting that decadent countenance.

He reminds me of the "blanks" in the Max Headroom series...excellent portrait!

You met him while shopping? Thank God, I thought they had finally come over the wall (yours). Three great character pieces. I've never met anyone who looked like this that wasn't friendly. Books and covers, eh?

Why does Harry dub this guy a loony? Surely he may have a BSC, I grow very weary of people putting labels on others for the way they dress, when I was a heavy metal fan (Still am) but don't dress that way. There were scores of people that would move away from me scared if you will. The immediate feeling was that I was an evil devil worshiper, when in reality I was a Christian with three A levels in mathematics? Really some people! Cool shot and digifiddle my friend.

A very happy looking chap and the accosting did not take away from any of your three photos and POVs

I wonder what the wife would say if I had a haircut like that.

He does have a nice face. There is a shy quality to his smile, (maybe because he's just been accosted while in the Superdrug) and he has lovely eyes. Excellent portraits! I like this one best.
