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.

Hardly common. It is wearing a wonderful 'coat'. Like you, I like this image for the pose but the other one is a superb head-on shot.

Grain shmain. Isn't it funny how creative grain has become unwanted noise? Oh well I suppose in this age of technology we expect too much. IMHO there is little wrong with this fine shot.

Sterling shot of the lovely Carder Bee atop the Cosmos, Andrea, with barely a hint of grain throughout the entire image.
