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 would hate to have to paint this with so many hues in that rusty chain! A superb find and capture!

Oh my, oxidation galore. The light source did wonders for the textures in this splendid capture, Andrea.

Wood, chain, barbed wire, staples, grass ... it's all so fancy together! :) Nicely seen.

Of course you were! Who wouldn't be? And a richly wonderful shot it is!

I just have this image of Mother Nature with a paint brush in hand dabbing color onto this old chain. Excellent catch.

Some great weathering there! Wonder why that chain has one very odd link?

I love these in tight shots, so effective and in many respects quite abstract, familiar objects take on a whole new perspective, it seems this style of photography will never go out of fashion because it can be so diverse and creative... long may it continue. Well done.

Nice close up and great colour on the chain.

Fantastic textures and let's not forget that nasty looking barbed wire. I couldn't find the padlock!!! :>)
