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.

Hehehe I remember having to go get him away from the squirrels :) Those little short legs were quite effective that day as I recall.

Awe I feel for Fritz!!!

At least he's still coming along! :) When Mandy gets tired of walking in the sand she just sits down and waits for better times.

I agree that this is a perfect beach to fly a kite or two. Run, Fritz! Run!

OMG, is that Fritz out there among that vast swath of sand? He looks like a brown football anchored in the desert. And I love the vast expanse of this foto, with those ominous clouds in the distance, something I wish we had around here to give us some much needed moisture.

Poor Fritz, nothing quite so hard as walking on soft sand! Must be even harder with four legs rather than two...that does seem to be quite a downpour heading your way!

My boy has short legs too! Isn't it interesting that Garageland's beach shot of Brighton is covered in what I guess is flint, but your beach here is perfectly sandy!

And I'll bet he's sick of Ralph lording it over him. Sometimes tall people are like that. He such know that his mother would never leave him behind.

Ha...what a cute capture. My attention goes right to Fritz and then to the four sets of parallel tracks...yours and three dogs. Who stayed home?

Even though it would be easier for him to walk straight to the prom then to you, he chooses to go straight to you! Such is the devotion of a dog.

Such a lovely capture, Andrea. We have proper rain for the first time in a looong time :-)

Oh, poor Fritzy, so lonely and lost. It's an amazing photo, with such a beautiful wide view; as without an end, Andrea.

The dark sky makes the sand glow warm, superb shot!

I zoomed in to get a better look at Fritz's expression!

I'm sure Fritz made it in the end... having shorter legs than the other guys.. it does have it's good and bad points... I'm sure keeping up on sand can be tough work for him but I bet all the dogs had a good exercise and a good time too.

Great image!. I love it

You will have to make Fritz a sledge that she can stand on while you tow it back home.
