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 like the contrasts between the chain and the colour of the tractor, it's quite abstract but I think it works well
jayfar
Quite some chain and a super shot.

Excellent abstract and idea of capture

Yep..Usually the other way around, they wonder what we are doing photographing strange things. They are so used to thinking cameras are for pointing at people exclusively. What a beefy chain though.

impresive capture composed as artwork! well seen! ;o)

I always find it delightful, if a bit mysterious, how boys love over-engineered stuff. There's a DIY show here that's quite popular, and when they're done doing whatever it was they were doing, one of them is bound to say, "Well, THAT isn't going anywhere!" ... in a very self-satisfied tone. It makes me smile every time.

Beautiful texture!!!!!

Quite beefy. Looks like its been working out. Even though I know what this is your composition makes for some a nice design.

Yikes! That is a massive great huge chain! Wonder if it gets used to pull out stumps? Love the shot!

I bet that is very heavy!!

Alone from night to night you'll find me, to weak to break the chains that bind me. Stellar mood atmosphere of lighting effects in this pic, A.

Looking on the other side - all of that chain might be a counterweight for the tracker!
Katraz
My that's a real man sized chain.

That is a heavy chain, a fine shot, I love these ideas with photography they take on a whole new perspective.

A very well seen capture!
