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.

Ah, I've seen these around but never knew what they were. Thanks for the education once again, Andrea!

As a child, I always thought these resembled little spear tips. Wonderful shot and fiddle.

A stellar bit of digifiddling in this nicely textured foto, Andrea. And by unadulterated, do you mean for children's eyes only?

I'm with Jeff on this one. I like the natural photo but still enjoyed your digifiddled version. I understand that the seed pods are tasty when pickled!

I wasn't sure what I was looking at. They remind me of insect wings. Two really fine images.

I have to go with your other shot this time as the detail is just too great to see removed!

When I first saw the thumbnail I thought they were smoked kippers hanging up, they would definitely not taste as good as kippers!. lol... great capture and post work.

With the digi fiddle they look so different.
