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.

I don't recall ever seeing your garden in the fog. Magic! And if these brilliant blooms are any indication, Spring should be a riot of color.

Twas just a garden in the rain....... So, another month has passed, much too rapidly for me, and we are again treated to a sterling montage of Andrea's lovely and well tended multifaceted garden, her labor of love. Terrific series of blooms in this one, young lady!

That's a great collage particularly with the brilliance of the outside flowers offsetting the early morning gloom of the center photo! Nice work, and your garden is quite wonderful!

Such glorious blooms! Now that we're on the road, I don't even have my six pots, so I'm doubly enjoying yours! :)

What a garden of delight, with all the brilliant colors. An admirable series of photographs, Andrea. You should be very proud of this garden, I suspect you've worked hard too, my friend.
