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.

It's a real beauty never seen one of these.

The type of view, you would never find here - so very European, iconic and mysterious! I bet the doxies would enjoy this lovely and winding path as much as us humans would ... what happens to those berries ? - do birds like them ? BB

The birds do, and some folk make jelly with them.

They are so good this year, full of winter birdfood. I have made Rowan berry wine, in the style of a dry sherry! Very good it was too! Many years ago though when I was a keen wine maker. They are all over the stream sides in Cumbria, they must be thirsty plants!

Now this is a picture that I want to step into. What a lovely scene! Beautiful colors. There are so many different shades of green and yellow, and then the wonderful red of the berries. I like the path too. Excellent shot.

I like this version without the electric towers and homes.
