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.

Compliments. Really beautiful. Never seen this kind of Hydrangea.

This one is new to me, maybe because I wasn't a hydrangea fan. I would happily have this plant in my garden though!

Wonderful pic. BTW that pot in my shot came from the Canaries about 35-40 years ago, there is also a very large one that you can put flowers in. The one in the picture is rather smaller.

I think this is the most beautiful hydrangea I have ever seen. The flowers look like paper art :-)

An amazing looking Hydrangea, Andrea. I guess you did some post-work on it. Anyway, for me it looks like a beautiful and very fine painting.

So this is what it looks like I was given one at a show and I thought last winter had killed it but it came back and is now about a foot high.

Oak-leafed Hydrangea - with a stunning sense of depth and contrast - the likes I've never seen before, in this top notch pic, Andrea.
