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.

The hobby is known as 'sticker bombing' and is getting popular over here. Rather than slowly collect all the stickers like we did as kids, they buy a sticker bombing kit that has all the stickers in it...and then just stick them everywhere. Most 'bombers' over here don't do the whole car, but rather highlight certain sections such as the mirrors. And it's not just the old bombs that are done. Many cars such as BMW's will also get the treatment! What a 'sticky situation'!!!

An interesting find Andrea. I thought its nice to have a hobby? Until I read the comment on sticker bombing. Some things just go so far they seem weird!

If it was stolen it wouldn't be hard for the police to identify the car. I thought the fun in collecting was to seek out and acquire but if you are going to do this you might as well use wallpaper.

Not much of a fan myself, but I see some here that have a goodly number on them. I'm sure it's bad for resale value!

It took me awhile to realize it was the back of an auto. A moving violation in some of the states over here for blocking the rear window. Very colorful and your comment about the car being stolen - there should be an insurance for this anti-theft aspect!!! :) Thank you Andrew for the additional information - the teacher in you!!!
