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.

Wonderful area. I could spend a day there with my camera for sure.

Both are exceptional scenes and views but I like the water break in the FlickR version!

A beautiful landscape. They do look as though they have just arrived at a new land. Of course, if this was your first visit I suppose it is a new land to them. The only thing missing is the wagon train behind them.

Oh yeah ... I certainly see the "pioneers" here! :) I bet Buster was delighted to find a new place to cool his tummy. It's a beautiful spot, and I love the weir in the other shot.

What a wonderful scene nicely captured, the dogs are enjoying themselves, all the scene needed was the late great Jack Hargreaves fishing the river, I know he fished the river many times and lived in Belchalwell until his passing in 1994.

Stuck on a show ground but at least we are parked next to the river.

A pretty little adder? I would stay quite a ways from them because, although small, they are a highly venomous European viper, either that, or it's someone who sums up figures. In any event, fine foto of the Stour River and environs, Andrea.
