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!
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!
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.

pets that are expressive are so endearing.

From my vast experience with the dogs I encounter during my walks, I would say that is the onset of a growl, on its way to becoming either a bark or a vicious attack upon the throat. And, by merely meandering about, I've taken about 300 photos over the past three days. Just more fodder to add to my already unwieldy files.

I have never seen Ralphie's teeth before. Maybe not just a smile!

He looks like he's about to fart, or just did ;o Silly face!!

Can be interpreted in one of two ways. "Stay away from me. I'm feeling rather dyspeptic today!" Or, "Hi there, come here often?" Nice catch. I'll bet it didn't last long.
